Cogswell To: Museum discussion list <[log in to unmask]> In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> Message-ID: <Pine.VMS3.89:b9 QCM.9808131709.A538989639-0100000@> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Dear list subscribers (especially Ms. Castillo): I (Michael Cogswell) did not make any derogatory remark. I posted the position announcement. The remark cited below was in a message sent to the list by Michael Hering <[log in to unmask]> in response to the position announcement. I assume that Mr. Hering sent a personal message to the list by mistake. Thanks.
