Alan

I am truly sorry for your loss.

I am not going to debate particulars of your post since at the end of the post
you
say you get pissed off writing about it. I am not here to piss you off with

to Jane. I know I am right just by what you already said. And going tit for tat
will not serve any purpose right now.

I hope the road ahead for you smoothes out a little bit.

Tom
