Earl LOL ! I'd forgotten that little dust up. Here was my defense of Richard Hendrickson on 12/10/2000. It was hardly the last word on the subject !! :-D ------------------- To: The Freightcars List <freightcars@...> From: "Tim O'Connor" <timoconnor@...> Subject: [FC] An apology? What for? And to whom? What exactly was R.H. supposed to apologize for? As far as I can tell, Richard simply disparaged a pretty vaguely described group of nameless "trainset bozos". In no way can anyone on this list accurately construe that to be a personal attack -- unless in fact, they believe that term applies to them. Who here does? This is political correctness without a clue -- the P.C. police demanding a formal apology on behalf of an imaginary offended party. I consider the term "trainset bozo" to be just as acceptable as "rivet counter", a term that is almost never used in a supportive, nurturing manner. Why aren't the "vesties" down on their knees begging our forgiveness for all the slings and arrows we have suffered with? (Maybe because they don't care!)
