Sometimes one does mis-speak, out of temporary insanity, rage, stupidity -- and then you got to forgive yourself and move on. Luckily most people have short attention spans so unless the media gets involved no one recalls your past transgressions (except paranoid list admins and MI5 -- the FBI ignores all). Not to belabor that, but, this is so true. The combination of the internet being primarily a faceless forum and intollerance (and my spell checker is telling me this is incorrectly spelled but isn't working at the moment for a correction) for others opinions and offerings have become the norm right, wrong or indifferent. It has become as bad when stopped in traffic behind a huge line waiting for the light to turn green and the creep behind decides to start honking as if anyone can change the situation. So annoying.
