That wasn't for you to decide.

I'm not sure what Ken means here, some elaboration might be helpful. What is it
that I've been picky about, exactly? And how does my being "picky" correlate to
the assertion that this was an "obvious attack"?


“I can't imagine him messing up this spectactularly."

Up until this incident, I had no idea Ken bore me any animosity whatever.


Up untill you felt the need to screw with a public invitation and further can't
take responsibility for your actions I felt no animosity.

He has stated his affiliation with LEGO Brand Retail in the past, on what I
consider a public group (chicago-lego@groups.yahoo.com), many times. Never, to
the best of my recollection, was there any statement by him on that group or
elsewhere that he wanted that kept confidential. Hence, I would characterise
that affiliation was "common knowledge".

Again what was done in a small group of friends and aquantences is one thing and
again it wasn't your decision to make.


I'm not sure I agree that it's a valid feeling because the circumstances, in my
view, don't support the notion that there was a privacy violation.

"Some pigs are more equal than other pigs."


Further I'm not sure it's appropriate that he should *want* to keep his
affiliation a secret.

Did I mention that it wasn't your decision to make? Without regard when it takes
this much for an ADMINISTRATOR to explain and justify away his actions something
is broken.
