An Apology

The following  post I sent was defiantly a case of "as soon as I pressed
the send key, I was sorry". The remark I made to Bill was rude and
unprofessional.   I've heard others suggest that it's a good idea to
wait 24 hours before posting something critical.  I think I'll take that
advice.

The nausea you're feeling is only cognitive dissonance.  Once you get
used to the idea of  diversity in library Internet access, it will pass,
trust me.
