An explanation of my response. [View all]

I feel I must explain what must seem as my overreaction to an honor given to me in an internet group. The honor came as I am trying to overcome a virus given to my computer which has greatly affected not only my astrology work but everything I do on the computer. I do not have the training or knowledge to reverse it's effects which are proving very difficult for my old eyes. I was under those conditions when I came to discover the kindness shown to me in this group.

The attack came right after the remark I made after Wawannabe out-rightly directed a post at me by using my name as the header. The post contained strong language insinuating Atticus had attacked me personally and goading me to respond (sort of tRump like behavior). After reading the post referred to I made what I feel was an honest comment about it's author. It seems I have received a disproportionate response by some coward who hides their identity and refuses to take responsibility for their actions. As for Wawannabe's role I feel like I was the fly to her spider. She directed a post at me using strong language then slunk away into the shadows. The good thing is it is not the end of the world, not even close to being in the class of personal health or the threat of Covid.
