I will take responsibility for that Dhaval. My use of the term 'shoot'
possibly caused Alvin to respond in the manner he did. So I humbly
withdraw all prior 'shoot' statements and we will allow them to live. I
also learned a very valuable lesson, what we say or write can cause
unexpected
reactions in passionate and dedicated folk ? So let them live with what
they have done. We sleep peacefully at night, can they ?
