According to recent research published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, I've only a 50-50 chance of ascertaining the tone of any e-mail message. The study also shows that people think they've correctly interpreted the tone of e-mails they receive 90 percent of the time.


Or at least, so it says here.

So I'd like to apologise:

Firstly, to all the people whose emails, posts, comments, etc. that I've misinterpreted, misunderstood and generally reacted to in an inept way.  I ought to have more faith in you, and when it looks like you're acting badly I ought to at least check to make sure you're being serious before I assume that you're being a dick.

Secondly, to all those people who've failed to understand me.  I ought to be more aware of the medium in which I wrote, be clearer and leave less room for misunderstanding.

I hope you can forgive me.

According to today's Guardian the  WTO has said that European countries can't ban GM foods.

What I'm wondering is - does this stop them from demanding that GM foods be labelled, so that people can make their own choices about whether they want to eat them or not?
