I wish to appologize to the list for not paying attention to negative banter or anything any English person posts that corrects or challenges language, quotes or languag usage.

Apology to List Members.
Although I have received no adverse postings from anyone except Terry King about the string of recent humorous banter/ badinage which has been seen by the List ( please see TK's recent advice to me advising that ''THIS'' should be continued off the List if I wish to pursue ''THIS'') ; I have , in fact had thanks (off List) from several List members who found it somehow tended to balance what otherwise sometimes gets a bit heavy, onesided, self seeking, pompous and sanctimonious.(I M O)
I do not recall that TK had been elected as a List minder at any stage in his dealings with the List but, nevertheless, I realize that something may be weakening if he cannot think of anything more to say to me within earshot of the LIST that might compromise my intelligence and integrity, and so I am willing to LET HIM OFF THE HOOK.( please see origin of this phrase in, ''Cassell's Dictionary of Slang.'' by Jonathan Green 1998. Page 861. I shall not be pursuing ''THIS'' with TK off the LIST, either.

With respect. Back to business, already.
