Thank you, I'm happy to accept. After all; no harm done -
it's only 
words, and "sticks and stones...", as the saying
goes.

My real concern is not with your intemperate response, but
with the 
hypocrisy of an administration that allows you free reign to
make one, 
but penalises another editor for disagreeing with a member
of that 
administration, using far milder terms.

I think everyone here has free reign to make a mistake now
and then.   
We're only human.  It's only repeated mistakes that threaten
to  
change our community standards.  If the list were full of
name- 
calling, for example, people would start to think
name-calling were  
acceptable in this community.  So in those cases, we have to
take  
some action if we want to maintain our community standards. 
In my  
opinion, those tasked with this job do have an increased  
responsibility to adhere to those standards (e.g. "be
nice").  But  
we're still only human, so we're still permitted the
occasional  
mistake, just like everyone else.

Peace,
Scott
