If this is how you choose to address me and deal with my concern, so be it. That's your character issue and cross to bear. Someone has stated "business-like and professional" in regards to you, but you've yet to demonstrate those qualities to me.

You seem out of touch with reality. You can't even grasp that what you've been doing is wrong. People lose their livelihoods for doing what you do here. Your laissez faire attitude towards both the concern and your own misappropriation of private data is a fine demonstration of your unsuitability for a position requiring responsibility. I know you're a bit older, and I'm guessing you're retired. Rather than dig your heals in about an issue you seem ignorant about, why don't you demonstrate the ability to learn?

Everybody makes mistakes. You've made one by misappropriating an AMA member database for your personal use. That kind of mistake is certainly forgivable, but you aren't even interested as to whether or not your behavior is acceptable. Is this how you'll proceed each and every time your lack of knowledge and awareness leads you into a mistake?
