Kennita, "sarcasm"? We did not know who wrote it or why. As it was
repeated over and over, it appeared to be a joke of some sort and our
response was in the spirit of humour. That someone left such a message in
the first place as a serious response to something on this list was not
considered since there was nothing preceeding it which indicated that to be
the case.
Thanks for your concern though.
