The facts support it.

You're not being held responsible for the actions of others.  Your responsible 
only for your own actions.

Now, don't you feel better for checking your behavior?

Good deal.

Interesting it is.

Not odd, interesting.

It doesn't matter what I like.  She's already been told to stop, so I trust 
she'll do what is right.

That's what I mean about your objectivity.  Now, ask yourself who -really- 
marched 10 miles onward out of line as she started her flame fest.  Be honest.  
As you recall, you and I had put this little issue to rest quite a while back.  
Now, ask yourself who deliberately stirred it all up again.

Indeed.  I have been completely honest in defending myself from her flame fest 
and am happy to see that she -must- now cease and desist.  Now let's see if 
she'll be honest about her creating and indulging it all (it's already been 
pointed out to her) and finally give it a rest.  Then I'll have my focus back 
on what I was doing before the whole ugly incident.
