I didn't try to spin shit and I really don't appreciate the inference either. I wanted to discuss the part I highlighted - thats all, nothing more.
Radar replied to me without any attitude and I think we both knew/know what we were talking about. Thanks though and BS right back atcha.

In that case, I apologize for assuming that your misdirection was deliberate; not due to poor reading comprehension, as you insist.

Interesting choice of words "misdirection"& "deliberate" - the connotations are typically quite negative. I'm not sure the reason for your interest in what I did anyway since my question was not directed towards you.
Seems as though yours was a most backhanded apology, in which case you can go.....

In case I am mistaken, which happens from time to time - apology accepted.
