As I said in my email to you when you emailed me offlist (which I asked you
not to do), you are simply not listening and doing the same things you accuse
others of doing.

You could not get me to see "your way" offlist and so now you try onlist.
Okay. . .good. . . this is where it belongs as I said to you. I refuse to
start talking about people offlist as you seem to be intent on doing. Trying
to get people to take sides with you or Sandra is futile. I disagree with
Sandra many times. . . just ask her. I have no problem with stating my
opinion even when it is different from hers. If I perceive an insult from her
then I have made it my problem. The way I try to read posts is from the
standpoint that everyone is coming from a place of sincerely wanting to help
and offer viewpoints that they believe may help people. This is what I
believe to be true of Sandra, even though I may disagree with her on some
things. This is what I try to believe of everyone on here.

There is a great opportunity here . . . to learn. I, for one, am going to
focus on that.
