Apology - was: Quiet table saws

[Farrell]

Oh, good grief! Egg's on my face! I'm the one that's sorry then. Perhaps your post just caught me at a bad moment.........let's see....... yesterday..........Hmmmmm.......two Baldwin Acrosonics, a K&C spinet, soda spilled in the car, hamster got loose - kid's crying, wife smashed her leg, grandpa's belly-aching about bad bowels, dog barfed in the living room.............. yeah, maybe it was just a combination of things.

I do see posts once in a while (and have been the victim myself) where someone tries to make a helpful innocent statement, or a question, and he/she just gets jumped all over. That kinda gets my goat sometimes. I guess I just haven't learned all the personalities among this group yet.

Take care. I'll try and restrain myself next time.
