Deleting posts is different from deleting people or establishing major policy. This happened at 11:00 P.M. eastern. I deleted the post rather than send email and go to bed. I figured that by this morning I'd have several angry emails in my inbox. The post was clearly off topic, and it was clearly going to cause a needless controversy. Nobody would have known about this if Fernando had chosen to work this out via email rather than self-immolating in the middle of an interesection. bruce
