Let me get this straight:

1) You shot off a white anti-collision flare, which wasn't necessary.

2) You were the one who was pissed off at the other boater, claiming
   your divers' safety was in jeopardy.

3) You called me a fool, and an idiot, for repeating what I heard,
   which happened to be mostly correct.

4) And now you want an apology.

Sure Dale, I apologize.  Now, wanna tell us the rest of the story?  MJB
