Yes, for many. For me my tolerance was at an all time low for those who
use word choices in an effort to sound authoritative. Oh, the other
strategy I disliked was the common, ya but...." Ya know the type who
ask for advice only to reply with, "ya but"



But this does sound like a sincere apology.



That is the problem with written messages. 93% - 65% of the meaning of
a message is from the non verbal part of the message. When we lack such
a rich channel as non verbal people tend to misinterpret the intentions
of the sender. Remember:

Its not what you say, its .............
Actions speak louder than........
etc.

So if you think my word choices as not being sincere you respond to me
believing that. And that is one common way misunderstanding occur.


Mope. Like I said, sounded solid to me.



Actually I was directing my apology to this group and Don White. Not to
the woman boomerswim.

And that is not that common at all.
