|Mark, I am so sorry that is your experience.
|and ..anything about 'in group' is a turn-off to me.
|
|and if you're getting chastised or barked at ..
|that's not ok.
|
|if you are referring to what I think you are ...
|seems to me that incident was just a 'hopefully one-time thing'  done in
|poor judgment at the time.
|

|person ...

|( ..oh ...I just notice weirdness happens ...it just does sometime
|unfortunately )
|
|intending civility and support for all,
|Scott
