How about taking this private than propagating this stuff on everyones email. Please be cognizant of the fact that your comments are multiplied into every email list on the server and it isn't appreciated. If you want to carry on a conversation with a person.... please do just that.

It's not at all about whether someones stops in front of you or who's fault it is. It's about respect in using a PUBLIC MASS EMAIL SERVER to air it out.

Subject: Re: GCCMail: guilty!

Seems like I managed to insult a few people by mentioning particular group
rides I've been on.  I've complained about safety lately on certain group
rides, so I thought by mentioning everyone, no one would take it
personally.  I obviously failed.  And although I work at a local shop, I
certainly don't represent them when I write as an individual cyclist.  In
fact, my co-workers often disagree with my opinions.  I am occasionally
outspoken, as many of you know, and longwinded, and I try to choose my
words with care and for good purpose as a long-time student of vehicular
cycling and advocate for safety.  Here, I failed.  I'll try to continue to
improve on my tact, with my apology hopefully accepted.

Regards,

James T.
