I have little wish to pursue this topic any further than necessary, in PM or on the boards, with you, or anyone else, but I do think think it relevant to state here that I have withdrawn the charge of racism both publicly (see post number 6) and privately, because there was no evidence. I found the suggestions made in the OP particularly offensive and I over-reacted.

I cannot undo what was done, but in most circumstances where a false allegation has been made, withdrawal with an apology is sufficient amends. You, however, have the power to delete the offending remark, as you know. I leave it to your discretion whether to do so or not. At the time of posting this message, you have let it stand for over 22 hours.
