To James Renner.  You talk of inappropriate?  That's a good description of 
your response to an honest concern by a college student.  You said, "... 
you make wild allegations about this man without taking 30 seconds to 
consult iMDB to see a list of his credits."  The college student didn't 
make wild allegations about him.  She commented on his badly worded 
message.  She makes some very good points (i.e., not asking for a resume 
and failing to affiliate himself with an independent film company).  He 
could also have given her the iMDB (whatever that is) reference to check, 
but didn't.  He could be anybody.  Why should she (or anyone else) trust an 
unknown person at the other end of an email address?

You said, "Next time you want to bring down "the man", Sadie, please do 
some cursory research."  Please!  If you think stating legitimate concerns 
is "bringing down the man" then you're 'way off base.

You said, "There are plenty other people who post on this board that 
deserve your rebukes. Please reserve your soapbox for them."  Speaking of 
reserving soapboxes!  You should reserve yours for someone who  rebukes 
needlessly, not someone who points out, legitimately, how people could 
easily be misled by a badly-stated message.

You said, "an appology would be appropriate."  Yes, I think it would.  Are 
you ready to make one?
