Imagine it wasn't jbor, but someone else who had been caught out doing what
jbor did, do you really think jbor would be forgiving and forgetting,
especially without there having been any kind of apology? Come on - jbor
would be getting the boot in more vigorously than anyone.
If jbor were to apologise, maybe it would be churlish not to forgive. Either
way it would be foolish to completely forget.
It galls me, though it doesn't surprise me, to see jbor trying to just neck
it out, launching back in as if nothing happened. I honestly can't imagine
how he can have the nerve. BUt I admit, that's just my perspective.
Cheers
