For Josh: Apology for (apparent) Unintended Offence

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

OK, Dan, apparently I misread what you were saying.=20

Which I misinterpreted. Everyone out here is a bit sensitive about this
issue. Lots of people, especially in the whiter parts of the South Bay,
sneer at East San Jose, and I jumped to the conclusion that you were
doing the same. On a second reading, I see no justification for that
conclusion, and am sorry I said 'fuck you, white boy' to you. I get a
little hot under the collar sometimes.

I would, however, still like to thank you for all of the encouragement
and support you are giving me with my little almost-project.
