[TR] My Apologies

[AA00727 at aol.com]

In responding to what I perceived as ungracious and odious  remarks about the 
late Mr. Harvey and the late President Reagan, which I felt  were 
inappropriate for this forum, I find that I have only added to the  discord, not to 
useful discourse. I'd had a very long day but that's not a  good excuse.
 
 I acknowledge that my abrupt reaction and abdication of  restraint was an 
aberration in my behavior that has resulted in my abetting  the abeyance of FOT 
standards and I wish to abrogate my abrasive  remarks. Please accept my abject 
apology and I hope this entire episode  will be abbreviated / aborted! With 
your accord, I affirm that I will abstain  from any further absurd, abusive and 
adolescent abasement. I hope we will  all be accreted by our active ardor for 
all things Triumph, so we can avoid  further acerbity and share the 
accumulated knowledge available here. 
 
 As an addendum, I'm not trying to be a smart ass, just trying to  lighten up 
a little.
 
 The apology is sincere and I avow that I will not allow myself to be  drawn 
into future online altercations. (sorry, I just can't seem to stop)
 
  I have received a lot of good advice, useful information, and  
entertainment from a lot of really nice people on this site. I rarely contribute  anything 
but questions as I don't have the vast knowledge of all things Triumph  that 
so many others on this site graciously share.  I have watched as  some 
discussions here and on other sites wandered way off topic and it isn't too  much of 
a problem as long as it stays friendly and within the bounds of common  
courtesy and respect. This site has always stayed "on topic" to a greater extent  
than many others and real enmity has been rare. I really hope it stays that  way.
 
 Sincerely,
 
 Gary Blihovde
