Happened to me as well, Al. Bearing in mind my background you can imagine how it affected me :-( I agree that life is too short and, funnily enough, was only thinking as I sat down at the computer that there must be a resolution. I think if I was to say that I was being over sensitive it would be best. It is still my opinion that the comments can be construed as racist and I am surprised that you cannot see that but I fully accept that it was not your intention.
