Charles,

It wasn't an attack.

I know what you meant by referring to a witch hunt, however it was an ill advised reference since the term carries much more meaning than you you intended to convey.

The reason I asked if you were at the convention was because I saw slabbed chips there and I thought maybe you hadn't been there, which would be important to note in light of your statements.

And as far as the 2 or 3 volunteers, I actually expected that I had missed one.
