[Nfbf-l] clarification

[Sherri]

Tara,

While I have agreed with much of what you have said, I must assure you that 
I have known Kirk Harmon for a long time and he is definitely not a racist! 
I think we need to be very careful about flaming and name-calling on this 
list. The message to which Kirk first responded wasn't even from me, but 
rather on the FCB list. Messages crossed both lists, but unless you are on 
the FCB list, you missed his message. I have not finished reading this 
thread yet, but I would hope we can all step back and refrain from 
name-calling and making assumptions about people that are patently untrue.

Sherri
