Re:
ApologyI suppose what I ought to do is just accept this and let it lie. I know better than to hold grudges, and I know better than to think you were really malicious, whatever you meant.
But the believing you part is... Actually, making
sense of the whole thing is giving me trouble. What you're apologizing for seems not to be what I saw you do. You said more than once to me that you were, in fact, speaking to and about those of us at Elpis. Now you're saying you were not. Although even if you were addressing your classmates, I'm not seeing much reason they should have to shut up about the news, a day after a fairly striking update, for your convenience. I get tired of hearing about things I've no way to fix too, though in my case that's part of the job, but that's no call to tell them to be quiet about it.
Also, the "pitchfork-wielding mob" comment in your Oscars post makes it sound like you feel unjustly persecuted, when as far as I can tell nearly everyone who commented had jumped in on
your behalf anyway.
