I got somebody who doesn't care too much about any of this stuff to read it. They thought he was still weasling and making excuses, but the tone was sincere. But, hey, give the guy an A for effort. (No, we're cracking down on grade inflation. Better make it a B minus. )

Then my person started in about everybody these days making excuses for everything and nobody taking responsibility and so on, so I was sorta sorry I asked.
