Oops, my sincere apologies to Ms. Cwierta, I did
not intend to offend. In explanation of my
mistake, I was responding to Ms. Cwierta's query
indirectly through the screen of T.N. Park's
response to her query, hence I only had K.J.
Cwierta before me. Since I have only known male
Koreans to use their initials as an abbreviation
of their names, I incorrectly assumed Ms. Cwierta
was Mr. Cwierta. Mea culpa. My thanks to Aidan
Foster-Carter for setting me straight, and again
my apologies to Ms. Cwierta.
