Please don't apologize! It's hard to read tone in textual communications, but I didn't take your initial comment as critical at all--I felt/feel a little embarrassed all on my own, without any outside criticism. And your subsequent remarks made me feel at home and able to venture to say more. And the fact that i echoed what you said is just my way of nodding, I guess? Restating as agreement. Anyway, you *were* clear, the fault, if there's any fault, is only on this end. But maybe there's no fault :-)
