If you don't understand his reaction, Michael, then perhaps you are
not a caring loving human being, sensitive and able to be hurt.  I am
surprised if you can't see that roughly half the people on this planet
would do EXACTLY as Marcus has just done.

Oh, let's see... Marcus should have guessed that there was a problem,
he should have guessed that he had made a mistake, and mailed you
BEFORE you let him know, in a public forum.  You keep assuming he did
this on purpose.  You do realize that by continuing to assume he did
this on purpose, and assuming that he was not trying his best to do
this right, you are basically accusing him of being a thief?

No, I guess you just don't realize that.

Peharps you should sleep a night and decide if your public mail was
actually smart.

Are you absolutely deluded?

Maybe if you apologized to implying he's a thief, in a large public
posting, then he might.

> This will make you and us happy

Why would you want him to make you happy?  I thought he just made
you happy, by deleting it.  After all, that was one of the options
you gave him.  Hell, everytime I re-read your original posting, I
see that what he's done is choose the obvious choice.
