I thought the announcement of the meeting was really, really badly written. It's as simple as that. I could have kept my mouth shut, which probably would have been the wiser move, Things have been bearing down on me lately like bricks and maybe I took it out on that message. People who think they are so darned smart don't always write well. And I thought that was one of the points of going to college.
