You right. You didn't quote Haruna anywhere in your write-up. However the issue at hand then was the allegation that Haruna refered to Chicago' south side as "shit-side". You chimed in with what you now called a "tease". Here is what I quoted out of that writeup:

"Lastly, Haruna missed the beauty of Chicago when he had an opportunity to grace UGAMA on Labor Day (September 2007) at the mid-west conference. He was no where to be seen or heard on the phone despite numerous fruitless efforts, but those that did will not tease at Chicago in the way he did."


What I get out of that quote is that, those who attended the UGAMA conference will not tease Chicago the way Haruna did.(remember that he is alledged to have called chicago shit side). I am kinda slow...so you've got to help me understand how I read that out of context. My comprehension skills are not sharp but I don't think I malign you in any form.

If it is a joke, then blame my sense of humor; for I didn't read it that way.

Bro Haruna,
 
Thanks for threading with me. Don't forget you are threading with your little student.
 
I am not familiar with the said conference. No idea whatsoever!
 
Once you have time, please read Dr. Pinkney's commentaries. He is a good friend of mine, so humble and African spirited. 
 
On the other hand, too much is being read from my usage of the word 'tease'. Doesn't the word tease suggest it is a joking matter? Besides, it's context would suggest to any reading well into my thread that I was pulling your legs in that part, jokingly. Ceesay's commentary is not in line with my arguement. I hope he will correct his' . Besides, where in my thread did i quote you? I will love to see that. 
 
Thanks though. I will make myself very clear. 
 
See part three soon.
 
urs in Kin
Yero.
