<DIV><BR></DIV>Carol are you serious? :O Someone here would
actually do that?
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Whoever that caller was, if you are reading this, I urge you to consider
what you hoped to gain by making such a call. Did you think that you
would somehow improve Carol's art or any of ours? I guarantee you
didn't, but instead you managed to upset another person.</DIV>

<DIV>If any of my grammar in this or any other message bothers you, do
not even think of calling or writing me about it.</DIV>
