Dear Wisewoman:

Inevitably, some of us won't be aware that we are saying
something that is dismissive, invalidating, just plain rude,
or causes another to feel distress. We're not perfect.

I have never heard you say such a thing, WW, and it is certainly
to be regretted that someone here might have offended or
distressed you.

I look forward to reading your posts and seeing you in chat.
I find your presence delightful.

Adieu
