Dear Sir,
Actually no, its not about political correctness at all. Its about common
decency. If you reread my post you will see that I made no personal
criticism of Mr. Richardson. It was he who launched into a personal
attack on me and not visa versa. Nevertheless, as a gentleman I will
exercise my option to leave the room if the proceedings offend my
sensibilities, and alas they have.
Sincerely Yours,
-Kevin O'Driscoll
