It wasn't because of what anyone said - please don't think that.

It's because I realized that I had shared way too much personal knowledge of the case without the permission of the people involved. I just felt uncomfortable with what might be seen as a breach of privacy.

For those that wondered what you missed - no big deal. Abortion doctor lost his license, justifiably, and then made some comments in a newspaper article that angered me because I had enough personal knowledge to know what he said was not true. But, that knowledge may not have been for me to share.

Here's the link to the article on him:

Again, sorry, I know deleting theads is annoying. My fault for letting my emotions run away with me.

No fault or blame needs to be assigned or assumed, IMHO.

How about - "I regret the inconvenience this may have caused some posters." [Big Grin]

Don't worry about it, Belle. I'd probably do the same thing. There's a confidentiality clause where I work and sometimes I find it hard to keep my mouth shut. So I'd delete a thread that was all about info that might get me fired....

I want you to know that I posted the MOST BRILLIANT POEM EVER in that thread, Belle.

And now, because of your wantonness, it's gone forever.
