Mark,

The answer is in your PM Inbox.

For everyone else, I am not going to identify the person who gave me reason to post this question. It would serve no purpose, and would only inflame an already regrettable exchange. Needless to say, it was done via PM, and I was not pleased with the way I was treated.

I remember a similar posting by Theodore in another thread, where he talked about having his knuckles rapped by the attending surgeon during a procedure. He dropped the retractor and walked out of the OR. He felt that the surgeon had not treated him like an adult, but rather like an unruly schoolboy. I'm not exactly a schoolboy myself, although I just graduated from college (again) 3 years ago. I'm not dropping kendo because of one person, but I don't have to stand for such treatment from anybody. My sensei doesn't treat me like that, so why should this person who doesn't even know me treat me in that manner?

Angry? You bet! Will I get over it? You bet! Does it matter to the rest of you? Not a bit! This was simply a catharsis for me, thank you all who participated.
