I have to admit that I resent the fact that some type of pressure was put on mrt to retract and perhaps even to apologize for his use of the word "handicapped". This group should be open to frank and up front statements and certainly no harm appeared to be meant in the use of the word.<<

    Walker, nobody exerted any pressure. I was made aware that my use of it was insensitive, that's all. I do not practice political correctness but neither do I want to be insensitive to people. So all's well from my point of view. Kevin's been here for as long as I have, and I have always appreciated him and his contributions here and elsewhere.

    Best,

    mrt
