I read it with a smile Martin. I don't think an apology is needed.

Best,

Hello all,

I want to apologize for my email below re: the nomination of Barbara Jones. It seemed ok when I sent it, but when I received it back from GSBN and read it again, my reaction was "Who would write that?"  Well, apparently me. It was the first analogy that popped into my head, but I can easily see it as insensitive or inappropriate.

Ending on a positive note, it was great to see the chorus of support for Barbara, who has been such an important pioneer and ambassador for straw bale and natural building for so long. Glad to know she is being reinstated on the list.

Discovering that Barbara Jones is not a member of the GSBN would be like discovering Moses is not in the Bible.

(best analogy I could come up with)
