>LOL!!!!  Ha, Erin - I had to laugh when I read your e-mail apology.  

>I guess something must have been said that I missed - some post or

>something.  Anyway, the reason I laughed was because I made a

>comment to a friend of mine today and I said: "There is this junior

>on ridecamp - it's so great to read her opinions, how deeply she

>gets involved and how passionate she is about this sport and how

>well she interacts with the adults.  Gosh, I wish we'd have many

>more like her."  So, for whatever it's worth, I don't think you've

>been rude at all.  I admire your passion for the sport, your courage

>as a young rider to step up to the plate and in good spirit

>participate in debates - and I hope you'll stay in this sport for a

>very long time.  And when you get out of college as a VETERINARIAN

>(not lawyer), I will beg you to vet my ride.  Most people on

>ridecamp - or the ones that actually actively post, are indeed your

>elders, but remember that you are the future of our sport and

>therefore count just as much.

>OK, I'm going to bed - or catch a last glimpse at what happened at

>the Olympics today.

I am apologizing for I am quite opinionated for a 15 year old...yes I know, my parents say the only way I should go is be a lawyer(but im shooting for a vet).  I am sorry if i have come across very rude, and I truly don't mean to.  I need to respect you all, you are all my elders!  I don't want anyone to go to a race and say "OO...that Erin, she is a junior, that snotty junior from ridecamp."  I don't want to give anyone a bad impression, which I think I have already done.  On the internet, I speak a more harsher way than I would ever in real life, and also e-mail doesn't show emotion, so if I say something, and something comes across mean to someone, I might have meant it a different way.  So I am giving out my deepest apology to any elder of mine who I have been rude towards.  I am truly sorry.  I am just very opinionated, and I say thing a lot of times with out thinking through e-mail, because I think to myself that I will never meet any of you in real life...which is now probably very false!  On e-mail I can seem to be a different person than I am in real life, so I am sorry:(
