I would just like to make a short apology to all the monks here regarding the recent events. I know that most everyone has "moved on" but I still see a hint of ire here and there amongst the daily postings. I feel now that it was wrong of me to voice a personal grudge in public, regardless of what happened. I kept quiet for so long that it just kind of burst out and I was too busy furthering my arguments and defending my statements to realize that it was out of control.

I never, at any time, "seek and destroyed" nodes by any author. That is poor behaviour which I strongly discourage. Instead, I engaged in verbal argumentation and literally dumped fuel upon the fire. I was wrong to do so.

So apologies to all. I hope that in time I can regain the face that I have lost.

PS - If you have no idea what I'm talking about, consider yourself fortunate. =)
