As I said, I had no idea you were both from South Africa and even if I had I would never have made the determination that you both know each other. Actually, I know more glass beadmakers from around the world than I do in the South Florida area I live in.
The ETA was added when I read Lynne's response to the Happy New Year salutation from Amy and recalled the response earlier where someone had misunderstood Mary.

Well then with respect Pam you should have taken notice when I posted ( I included only that quote of yours) because I only commented on that part and only that part of your post. My post had nothing to do with agreeing with or knowing anybody it was just pointing out that Lynne had not said anything bad about Mary.

I admire Mary and her work tremendously but her last comment could very easily have been misconstrued. Rather write more than less to explain what one means. And because I have read and have seen a lot of Mary's work through the years I immediately thought to myself that she would'nt make a derogatory statement. But not everyone knows everyone else so sometimes things can be taken as they seem and not as they were meant.
Also the little sarcastic remarks and the smilies that follow really don't help the discussion.
