So, yes i did think about it a lot ... and i decided that i would have to accept that risk, although she had posted her e-mail here once before ... but i had to believe it was the better part of valor to suffer her ire than to let her be in peril.

hey there daizer,your apology is accepted ... you're cool with me ... i'm just grateful you can see my side ... that makes it sweet for me ... and i can see your side ... it certainly could freak somebody out who was already in crisis-mode and perhaps on the brink of disaster ... those concerns make sense to me ... nevertheless we have read posts from folks more eloquent than me about how we must take action to protect our comrades from danger ...
as for crisis-mode, i (guess this was obvious) freaked out when it dawned on me what krissy was saying ... and i Could have been more discrete, but that was beyond me at the time ... but i knew i could come to this board begging for help and someone would help me get a grip ... and that's what happened.
you are good to voice your concerns And it is Very Big of you to make your apology ... i dig that... thanks.
know that i read your note with compassion for your decent intentions which kept any harshness from being felt by me ... i have to hope you felt none from me in my response.
take care friend.
