Another internet tempest in a teacup.




People, especially businesses, need to be careful what they say on the 'nets and email. Here's another example of something getting forwarded, and then exploding across the Netosphere. Full story here, and here.

'We refuse to work for homosexuals

At 9:08 a.m. Farber, who together with her husband, Todd, owns Garden Guy Inc., a landscaping company on Hillcroft, hit "send" on a message that delivered a painful blow with the verbal equivalent of a smiley face.

"Subject: Cancel Appt - Garden Guy

"Dear Mr. Lord,

"I am appreciative of your time on the phone today and glad you contacted us. I need to tell you that we cannot meet with you because we choose not to work for homosexuals.'
