Since it is Friday let me say that this interchange on  who ripped who off
demonstrates so clearly how misunderstanding and hurt feelings influences
everything. As the Beetles say in their song "Isn't it a pity how we break
each other's hearts and cause each other pain."

Human relations is my field of expertise and I recall one list member
advising to try to work it out. It is never too late to say "I over
reacted." or "I'm sorry I caused you pain."

The better person steps up to the plate first.

I advise continuing to communicate and trying not to bad rap each other.
Each thought they were doing right. It should never be a bout money alone,
but about service and helping.

But what do I know?
