Knowsit, if you are still there, you've stepped on a bundle of raw nerves that is larger and uglier than I could ever have imagined. All is not well in Pickerington and, if we all do not lower the decibal level, this community will explode in November. This is what happens when people do not listen to each other, do not work together in good faith to find solutions to their problems, and answer arguments with flip remarks and character assassination instead of evidence and reason.
It's not your fault, and I deeply appreciate your compassion for me. Out of a sense of justice, you simply gave back what you thought I had been given.
There are, however, more important things than justice. I believe that the best way to heal our community, and indeed to heal this sorry world, is to turn the other cheek to such insults. So, Mark Uher, I forgive you your trespasses, as I hope you will forgive mine. Tomorrow is a new day. Let's make a fresh start.
