Phil,
cc: listserve subscribers

You  must of missed Lori's apology posted to this listserve. I saw it.
The title of the message was " I am sorry I goofed". It was dated the
30th. Her message said. - I’m sorry I meant to email to Deb Neustadt
privately and got the wrong email address.  I know this is not a
political forum and I apologize for any inconvenience.  Cheers, Lori

It was a mistake and one that was caught and apologized for. Many people
don't realize that when a message is posted to a Sierra Club listserv(e)
by a sender they can't reply to only the sender. The reply message is
posted to the listserve. It happens.   It happens on the Iowa Topics
listserve because there are many people on this listserve that are not
on any other Sierra Club listserve.Through the years there have been
several cases. It happened once when a father son combination were on
the listserve. I happen to be on many many Sierra Club listserves and
others set up by other environemental organizations so I am use to not
replying to the listserve even when I want to communicate with the
individual that posted a message.

Lori's apology was consistant with the string of email messages. She
later emailed me privately. The message posted to the listserve was not
meant to be a broadcast message. Since she is on the listserve, she
probably saw my name in the sender portion of her inbox and hit reply
instead of making a new message.

I have not seen you since the JJ dinner. I hope your job with the Dean
campaign is going well.
