Connie, you know full well that I have sent you several notes, to which you refused to reply. It is grossly misleading to berate me for not communicating with you by PM.

And since you made your charge publicly (in red, no less), indeed without preceding it by PM, how can you object that I want the same public that heard you to hear my response? Is your notion that you are entitled to speak, but I am not entitled to respond?

A bit more temperate please, gal.
