At this time, I'd like to apologize to the net readership for the incredibly
voluminous responses to Gary Samuelson's almost equally voluminous responses
to my "Blast from the Past" article.  Most of my articles consisted of trash,
self-defense against malicious attack, and face saving in the advent of such
attack.  I intend to submit three or four brief articles summarizing new
material that I presented in my articles.

This is NOT to be construed as an apology to Gary Samuelson.  Repeatedly this
man has deliberately twisted my words, uttered lies about me, told the world
what my position "really" was.  Those who want to peruse the 2000 lines or so
of rebuttal are welcome to examine the times where Gary told everyone
repeatedly that I assumed that there was no deity (my many postings on many
religious issues contradict this), where he deliberately excerpted sections
of my articles to twist the context.  I started out trying to answer Gary's
extended rebuttal, realizing that he was responding (again) to an article that
he had already responded to many months ago, but the more I read the more
frustrating it became to sift through both Gary's presumptiveness (he often
said things is such a way that it may have been obvious to him what point
he was making, but it certainly wasn't so obvious to me) and his word-twisting
and lies.
