To advise someone to break the law is usually the action of someone who considers themself above the law. Pure Jane was volunteering to ship bees across international borders, and as an aside confesses to having done so already. I have already dealt with the matter of words which I used in another post. Words which any well educated school boy is aware of, and certainly nothing which would cause offence in normal polite society. It is my intention to write to Mr.Dick on a personal and private note (making sure of my headings) as I believe he has firmly stepped outside the realms of decency. I apologise to my peers for the inconvience caused by this, you can be assured that I will be more diligent in my use of the delete button and will insure that I will not rise to the bait again. **************************************************** * David Eyre 9 Progress Drive, Unit 2, * * The Beeworks, Orillia, Ontario, L3V 6H1. * * [log in to unmask] 705-326-7171 * * http://www.muskoka.net/~beeworks * * Agents for: E H Thorne & B J Sherriff UK. * ****************************************************
