Hi, this is like a retraction in the newspaper. I, Kaytee, realize that the comments I made about JK Rowling were very personal. I would probably phrase them differently now, having seen how they were received. I still feel very strongly about her stance and her very public opinions, but I would like to say that her opinions are garbage, not she as a person. I humbly accept this correction from our many listeners who have pointed it out as going too far. The audio is what it is, but please consider this my public statement regarding this matter.
