[W126 Coupe] From today's Wall Street Journal

[Robin Jones]

Camran,

I sent my note before your email landed in my inbox. I wasn't trying to beat anyone up over typos. I just wanted Gerry to know that I think this list is generally a friendly place to post.

  Robin- I already appologized to Gerry; honestly the e mail went out wrong.  For goodness sake, I wasn't trying to be nasty; will you guys overlook my stupid e mail?!!  Sorry again!
