Most certainly not. I called him Jacob in my first response, but that was
followed by someone using the surname and I thought I had originally got
the surname wrong, probably by reading it wrong in the incoming message. I
did consider being wrong, but I thought someone would correct me. Now you
did.

My apologies to Jacob, first, and second to anyone else who may have found
my behaviour offensive,

Lucio.
