Not at all, but sadly some people have decided they don't like my opinion
without knowing the full ins and outs. One list member (female) contacted me
privately for more info. She was not upset by my comments, she wanted to know
some reasoning behind it. In other words she had made a judgement on minimal
information that unfortunately some other females have on this list.

I was happy to oblige her and enter a sensible, adult discussion.
