 I'm terribly sorry for this.
 
 Since your message to me was in response to my posting to the mailing
 list, and since it only contained a statement about an interesting
 approach and no personal or confidential information, I thought you had
 either *intended* to send it to the list, and you had just sent it to me
 by mistake (doing a reply instead of a followup, which can easily
 happen), or that you had also posted it to the list and I had missed the
 posting (not unlikely either, due to strange mail filtering at my work
 site).
 
 Obviously it was me who was mistaken.  Please accept my sincere
 apologies.
