I most sincerely & abjectly & immediately retract any aspersions, real, implied, or hypothetical, whatsoever that any sentient being anywhere, of any race, gender, ancestry or shape, & at any time might possibly infer about your educational attainments from the remarks which I so unfortunately & carelessly made on this discussion thread & do most humbly beseech readmittance into the company of learned gentlefolk to whom they were addressed (at of course the most junior & probationary level, & in the hope that I might worm--I mean work--my way to a more dignified position after 10 years of good behaviour--either that, or attend a good military review). Of course, I hardly dare be so bold as to offer this apologia, in fear that it might suggest any possibility that the aforementioned remarks be true; you are the unquestioned Mistress of Geology of the Republic (. . . at least until someone possessing the mystical letters of "P", "h", & "D" opines otherwise (-; ). But in the hopes that it will be taken in the Right Way & that All is Forgiven,
YHOS,
Snarkhunter
