 I am more than a little surprised that you took offense to the "PCS" reference.
 I am relieved to hear you do not subscribe to it and at the time did not
 consider it might be offensive.
 As I mentioned in the email you have an impossible job and it is not my
 intention to make that task more difficult. Intelligent men/women can
 agree to disagree at times or it escalates to something it shouldn't.
 It is at this point I simply ask that the discussion focus on something we
 can hopefully agree on and that is many times deletion post cause more
 problems than they resolve.
