thanx bill
i am sincerely touched that you are at least speaking
to me again
after we have risked our lives together trying
glhemaokpa against the wind & you broke my ribs
hauling me back into the boat
& after we have grown up in the same jail together too
albeit separately
since the last i can recall hearing from you directly
was the first of spring 2004
on the occasion when i did endeavor to restore the
original group description
for the last time
as i then understood & now continue to understand it 
as my final act as both list owner & moderator
an act which only a list owner can manage to do by
himself
you of all people must realize 

i am also warmly reminded of this earlier message from
you & reply from me
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/11534
which we wrote during the period when i was indeed the
list owner at your personal request & behest
long before the membership deemed it necessary to
split the group
& when our dual controls of ownership were real & not
imagined
i assure you
even if you dont recall my insistence that you remain
owner emeritus along with me too

but now that the group is indeed split along the very
lines you have suggested there
what could the exception or difficulty be about

i dont get it

perhaps we should reunify the groups so we really do
have a problem

just kidding of course

but i am mystified as well as gratified in earnest
