: On 19th October there was a failure during software maintenance and the index page became corrupted. I had to restore the index page from a backup level. Apparently this resulted in the loss of one message. I apologise for this loss.
Apology accepted. Would you confirm however that you have called Churchhouse on the number given to ensure that he posted the message attributed to him, which incidentally your membership secretary does not attribute to him, and which I attribute, as in the post which was lost in your essential software maintanenace, to be the work of Pearly Gates.
It would otherwise appear in the circumstances to be rather perverse of you to eliminate 35 messages including the authoritative judgment of Mike Eacott and leave this clear forgery intact.
