Quote: you gain nothing by burying the hatchet ...
Actually by burying the hatchet you gain the respect of those that realize you are a class act. It is easy to hold a grudge, not so easy to let it go.
At this point it is no longer what *that* person said. He has already dug his hole. Very few of those that have read this topic are going to support *that* business.
How does holding a grudge improve the situation in any way? Unless of course someone gains a sense of betterment by feeding the flames of anger. I think the point has been made.
