My email address Written by Tracy W (5/17/2007 7:31 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Situation and temper (long), penned by Robbin

Hi Robbin, I think you misunderstood my argument - I am arguing that Charlotte's standards and reasoning is wrong, not that she didn't have her reasons for what she did. Can you please email me at tracyw@activatormail.com if you wish to continue? (Or anyone else).
