Hello All;

    Recently, I posted a rather vitriolic diatribe directed at one of
    our members over a simple remark.  I would like to publicly
    apologize for such bad taste.  The simple stimulus of my response
    was over the phrase, "just a worker bee who makes the stuff".  I'm
    certain that it was not meant in the spirit that I took it, and I'm
    gratified that the person who wrote it made it known to me what they
    felt about it, rather than suffering it in quiet, good graces.  But
    I beg the patient forgiveness of Orchid's community and will use
    more tack in the future.  I am, finally, just a worker bee.  My
    hands look like hell.  But they also have, I think, a certain
    dignity to them.  Some people get the shame they deserve (CEO's who
    need to spend time behind bars), However, there are those who's work
    leaves them worn and soiled and there's little they can do about it.
     I hope we can remember, you can't always judge a book by it's
    cover.  Even the "sharply dressed" can be quite nice. Mea culpa.
