Thanx Tom, I see your point. I think sometimes it has to do with reading
something in the "tone" in which it was written. I think we all sometimes
assign a "tone" to a post, in our own minds as we read it, that might not
accurately reflect the manner in which it was intended to be read. For
myself, I know I have done it on occasion.
My apologies, I will be more aware of this in the future. Thank you.
