I think you meant to address this post to me, Helen Dynda. My message to you was not meant to indicate shouting. I used capital letters to lend emphasis to specific words.
On the Internet shouting is indicated when the entire message is written in capital letters. At least that's what someone told me more than two years ago.
Whenever two or more people with the same first name are posting messages, it is really important to indicate which person is being referred to.
There have been times in the past when 2 or more people with the same first name have posted messages on the same days. At one time there were 3 Helen's. At that time we decided to use initials for the last names...Helen C. for Helen Chalmers -- Helen D. for Helen Dynda -- and Helen G. for Helen Gibson.
I had thought about writing to you privately; but since you've chosen to post messages anonymously, there's no way I could contact you privately.
I am sorry that you took my message so personally. I know that you are really hurting; and it was never my intention to hurt you in any way. Please forgive me!
In peace and friendship,
Helen D.
