Hey Anthony,
Thanks for the reply. I feel caught up in something that got much larger
than it ever should have been. Lots of other emails from the list in my
inbox, so gotta run. Take her easy!

You have an extreme view that is a little skewed I think. Generally if
blame is to be cast, the child itself (in this very modern age) is a
problem, as well in some schools, generally those that are not financially
well off, it is the families fault. However, the provincial governments
are also making it hard for teachers to maintain a proper learning
environment. Hands are tied. With those two forces at work, it's
definitely not ideal. Stress and teachers....you wouldn't believe the
stats! It is a very stressful vocation.

What, you are just insulting me more! Like I said, keep it and and I'll
keep replying. You'd be amazed at my job. This is just a mailing list.
There is far more to life than this and photography. Some of you live this,
and that explains the constant reactions. Why don't you try and be a better
man than I and stop first? Hmm?

I'll keep replying if others keep sending me messages, want it to stop?
Pass the word around to stop the insults and blaming and what-not.
Remember, I quite I've been quite wronged from just one email that I
apologized 5 minutes later. That's the fact and if someone wants to defend
those who continually write them, well....that's life.
It's easy to stop, you guy can let it go as well,

You are arguing for the sake of arguing. I won't even try to match your
quotes. I do know you've got plenty wrong in your email.

All well and good, but time stamps are notoriously wrong.
