Glad to see you reconsidered, Danny. Welcome back.

Hi
Well, well, it's been a while. First, I want to thank everyone for the kind words that
have been said to me and about me, both publically and privately. I sincerely appreciate
it.
I also want to thank Jimbo, for bending over backwards to accommodate me while keeping
within the Wiki guidelines. If I have been stubborn or said anything that offended him, I
apologize here, publically. I admit that I was skeptical at first, but I believe that his
efforts in bringing about arbitration and dialogue will lead to a greater spirit of
camaraderie among everyone who participates in Wikipedia. I also believe that this spirit
of camaraderie and partnership is the best way to pursue and promote knowledge, which is
certainly our goal.
Given all that, I would like to apologize to everyone if my (rash) departure created a
stir. I have reconsidered my position and decided to accept Jimbo's offer of bringing
this dispute before the arbitration committee, no strings attached. I understand that the
issues to be discussed will include my behavior regarding the text in question, but I hope
they will also cover the issue of bullying on a much wider level.
I would also like to ask that, if possible, someone who knows how restore my personal
pages. Whatever happens, I am proud of Wikipedia and would like to have some reminder
somewhere that I played some little part in building it.
Thanks,
Danny Wool
