The Response ****edit****
*rolls eyes* Yeah, so call me untrusting but…I don’t *quite* believe her. heh. Quite a good cop-out tho….geesh. I thought about apologizing for laying in to her when she didn’t even read the article. But then I thought…dude. Don’t forward something to an entire email list WITHOUT reading it. :op

Hi, [Echo]- I am afraid that I didn’t even read what I sent you so I
truly don’t have any idea what was sent other than it was about
Hurrican Katrina which I definitely donated to. My computer is high
speed internet but does not save what was sent unless I request it
done, which I did not. If you look at the top of your list, you will
see, it was sent to everyone on my e-mail list. I didn’t pick and
choose who it went to, for sure. I don’t send on a lot but I guess
because it was on Katrina, I assumed it was pertinent information and
should be sent on. I definitely apologize that it was something that
offended you so greatly and acknowledge that you definitely let me
have it. On my side I apologize.
Love,
Aunt Patsy

Oh, heh. Yeah, I don’t feel bad at all. I think I woulda sent it even if I knew *beforehand* that my aunt didn’t read it. My only response to her was..hmmm….perhaps warmer than I would’ve liked it to’ve been. But. I don’t think it in any way implies that I was in the wrong or that I need to apologize. And I know that she doesn’t realize that one-line emails, unless it’s with someone I email with on a daily basis or such, tend to indicate a cold shoulder. But. That’s ok. I’m satistfied that I didn’t “Oh. I understand. That makes it all ok. Just try better next time.” heh. I think NOT. My response:
Aunt Patsy–Oi….read things before you send them, silly!!!

…”on my side I apologize”… kinda sounds like she thinks you were wrong & will BE wrong no matter what your response. And really. WHO just sends stuff out without having read it? It could have said blah blah blah Hurricane Katrina for a paragraph or two & then gone onto say… I don’t know… what’re the fundamentalists saying? That it was God’s way of punishing The Big Easy? Or… who

I wouldn’t feel too bad. Anyone who forwards things to his/her entire address book without reading it first deserves a verbal slap.
