[Rhodes22-list] Reply on Art and Rummy erroneous reading

[Joseph Hadzima]

Hi Hank 

I agree with you on this topic

I was also taught that the sender has 100% responsibility
to ensure the message is clearly understood.  Now part of
that effort was to use a technique called "reflective
listening".  Since Ed has added clarification I assume we
can't fault him on this transmission :-)
