[ga] Full suppot for Sotiris

[Eric Dierker <eric@hi-tek.com>]

No, Mr. Sotiris,

It is I who apologize.  I have caused another man to do that which he
feels a need to apologize for.  This is unacceptable to a morality which I
have spent the last decade trying to achieve.

I also apologize for not being more frank in response to your opaque
references to my past, in the past.  I believe that I may have lead
credence to the allegations you made against me by not being more
forthright.
My fault entirely for being coy.

As to individuals.  Of course you are correct.  My references should
always be understood to mean dotcommoners (an individual who is not an IT
professional and also does not own a domain name)

As to individuals who own domain names, I monitor your work with that
group and as a dotcommoner wholly support you as their leader.  I place
passion and conviction far above political correctness.

As always let us grow and learn in the full light of a bright sun, as a
rose grows stronger in fresh air and light so you have shed light on my
past and helped me grow.  May both of our roots be stronger and support
even better flowers.

Sincerely,
Eric
