Saria, please pardon my ill-timed rapid-fire response. I have taken the time to visit that thread and read more about that topic and I now realize the level of scrutiny it endured, but I won't say more on the subject so I don't come across as trying to continue this line of discussion.Saria wrote:I say this with the utmost respect: please google it.

I felt that this was an appropriate place to post an apology since this is "where I am going" - to a place of recognizing my own wrongs - without bumping a topic that didn't need to be bumped, but if my post is going to derail this thread Into a discussion about that event then please delete my post. I refuse to be part of another problem.
Where are you heading?

Re: Where are you heading?
Thank you The Troglodyte, and please don't worry, I'm the one who brought it up in the first place, I just don't want to give it more attention beyond my apology. I'd welcome any private messages from you (and anyone else) on the subject, since me posting such a message, referencing said event, and then requesting that the event itself not being discussed in the thread where I posted the message is problematic. Unfortunately, to give context on how I want to move forward, I felt it necessary to reflect on the past momentarily within this thread.The Troglodyte wrote:Saria, please pardon my ill-timed rapid-fire response.

Re: Where are you heading?
Thanks for your amicable response and the pm request as well, which I certainly will do, once I've had ample time to review the subject matter more thoroughly and formulate a more well-informed opinion.Saria wrote:Thank you The Troglodyte, and please don't worry, I'm the one who brought it up in the first place, I just don't want to give it more attention beyond my apology.

Yaaaay Sports!
I'm guessing you're in China for business? How'd you get roped into that assignment?

It certainly must be! Don't hesitate to share stories..Always interesting to hear about how it is to be a foreigner in a country.
