I didn't say anyone owed anyone else an apology.  I still think your
initial 
post that set off the whole fiasco was poorly worded at the very least & 
insinuated that the Giles brothers were roiders too.  After way too much 
discussion about the whole thing, I offered to put it all behind me & I'm 
happy to keep it that way.  I think we'd all be best served to do the
same, 
but this is a public forum & everybody makes up their own minds.

IMO, the less said about it, the better.

Go Pads !
