This is to apologize for my recent offensive posting to this newsgroup. It
has been (forcibly) brought to my attention that I may have inadvertantly
offended some of the readers of this newsgroup. If so, I apologize, but in
my own defense I would like to point out that I did not cross-post the
original article; Sophie Quigley did.
In the future, remember that if you cross-post an offensive article to
net.flame, you are likely to get an offensive article back.

I don't know why you decided to pick on me out of all the people who participated in this whole silly discussion, but I certainly was neither the originator of the discussion nor the originator of the cross-posting, who happened to be the same person, someone complaining about women giftwrapping their sanitary napkins with toilet paper. My cross-posting as a response to the original cross-posting was very appropriate then. The discussion was still civilised at that point. -- Sophie Quigley {allegra|decvax|ihnp4|linus|watmath}!utzoo!mnetor!sophie
