Luc:
I want to publicly apologize for what was a callous and unthinking post to
this BB yesterday. I really did not mean to slight any participant in
amateur radio or this community who does not use English as a first
language. I did not mean to single you out for your use of a second
language. I just didn't think it was appropriate to quote a "fun" message
from me when you were defending scrutiny of one of your posts. I may have
sent the same post to you even if English WAS your first language.
You wrote last:
>> Politly yours and as confucious saying says "If someone does not worth
a laugh he worth nothing"
I DO get the idea, but even in French, proper nouns are
capitalized. "Your's" is possessive, and politely has an e. Your spell
checker is not broken, it's just not on. As a trained journalist, I edit
to a fault; sorry.
Sorry Ib if you though my post was a generalization. I will try to be more
tolerant and try to ignore such trolls in the future.
73, Mike kf4fdj
