> > I have been confused about this whole affair as it related to my act, including what I thought were civil and carefully chosen words. ... A few years ago, it was your wish to have us work out our differences with what was tantamount to policing ourselves for infractions of civility without the immediate intervention of deputies. ... I thought I was performing in that role.

The downside is, that doesn't help other posters avoid blocks.I have continued to give this incident thought. I have trouble getting past certain things, but I understand how my original words to Alexandra could be received as being a stern accusation. I didn't mean it to be stern, but I was judging the tone of her post to Greywolf, and estimating her intent. So, yes, I now see that this was an accusation with the attendant attempt at mind reading. I apologize for this, and I will try to be more cognizant of this in the future.
