<pre>Thank you Ms Lund for also seeing the heinous fallacy of Mr. Fox's post. As I pointed out in a previous post, Mr Hansen also agreed with Mr Fox, and <br>I think both need to be called on the carpet for their stand - be it sarcastic or not, and both should apologize to the viewers and contributors of this site.
<br>I would note that even Mr Sitler was responsible enough to stand in open court and apologize for his actions. Yes, it may very well have been self serving of him <br>to do so, but nonetheless he did apologize. As of this post, I don't see where neither Mr Fox nor Mr Hansen has done so.
<br><br>I would say again, to both of you "Shame on you." And shame on any others who even for a minute thought the suggestion of Mr Sitler boarding with Mr Wilson's grandchildren <br>"an excellent suggestion."
