BHL,

When I made the original comment it was in good humor. You were jumping from board to board pretending to be two different people.

After I made you mad, I realized that I didn't know you well enough to make such a comment. I'm sorry for making a comment toward your character.

Please accept my apologies.

What happened? You were worried about the Y2K bug and disappeared after the first of the year. Did it get your computer?
