I owe an apology to both Robs on the list.
I was cutting pears,
drying pears, multitasking to the max, and answering email. In that
process, I combined two posts, thinking that they were from the same
person. In another post, Minnesota (Becida) Rob said that he had seen
racism on this list. VA Rob had made no such claim. While I disagree
with VA Rob's comments about Sharpton, I attributed an attitude to his words that were not in evidence, and I am sorry.

B, doing too much at once...hates this kind of conflict on the
list...it is becoming too personal for my taste, and with my foot
firmly in my mouth, I will back out of this conversation and get back
to my pears.

You say something like this and then you say we of the list are racist?
C'mon Rob. We are all biased to some degree, and your own bias just
reared it's head.
