  Well judging form the private post that Jay posted I don't see how
anyone could com to any other conclusion that the one Jay came to
myself.  So I fine this statment a bit foolish.  Or expecting someone
to view that posting in a foolish manner.  Maybe some folks will.
I suppose you can hope so.  But I must say, this is apoor attempt in
damage control.

  You must be very nieave to believe that anything you say to anybody
at anytime stands the chance of being repeated.  I learned this by the
time i was 16 yrs old.  Yes, it might be viewed that what Jay did in
posting that private E-mail may be viewed as unethical.  Than again
considering the stakes here, I found it very reveling and refreshing.
Openess usually is.  And by Jay posting that private e-mail, he really
may have opened some folks eyes.  That remains to be seen of course.

  I suppose turn around is fair play.  But by saying this in this forum,
you and PAB, are indeed just confirming Jays assertions.  Not a good
move guy.  It would be better to stay above the fray.  But you won't
or havn't done that yet, so I don't expect you shall now.

  Kind of a ridiculous statment with a SIG file that has you as
Deputy Director of PAB.
