I must drink the same koolaid as you, because I agree wholeheartedly. If you aren't going to apologize for your specific action but rather apologize generically for your "behavior", then it hardly seems an apology at all. Nobody learns a lesson but you, and that seems a terrible waste of a lesson. I understand that it might be more embarrassing to speak directly about what you did, but it gives EVERYONE a chance to avoid making the mis-step by vicariously living your description of the issue.
I don't have any clue now what happened or didn't happen, only that Will is back and sorry and Cyn is still here and sorry ..
for something. I'm glad for that, but I wish there were more to it.
