Subject: [WSFA] A Public Apology to Keith Lynch

All,

A couple of weeks ago I sent off messages to several e-mail lists I
subscribe to about Mensa's National Testing Day.  Each message was tailored
somwwhat to each different list.  I intended these messages as friendly
invitations.

Keith responded with the kind of commentary for which he is well known.  I
completely misinterpreted his message -- and, instead of privately querying
him on it, issued a public attack.  That was wrong of me.  I've known Keith
for some years now.  I can truthfully say he is a good man, worthy of
respect.  We have our differences, but we are normally respectful of each
other.  I truly regret the things I said to and about Keith.

Keith and I have had a private exchange of messages.  I've apologized to
Keith in these messages.  We both, I think, understand each other far better
now than two weeks ago.

I am once again apologiving to Keith -- this time in public.  I also
apologize to this list for exposing it to the dispute between Keith and I.
I should have kept it private until it was amicably resolved.

Best,

Chuck Divine
