My third loose end which I would like to tie up is that I would like to apologize to Ms. Smith if I have said anything that may be construed as an accusation of dishonesty on her part. Some concern has been expressed that any suggestion of dishonesty could be damaging to her career and I do not wish to damage Ms. Smith’s career as I’m in a similar boat as her. I vigorously disagree with her on various matters, but this should not imply that I am accusing her of lying or dishonesty. Perhaps I made some ill-tempered remarks, but it was not my intent to accuse her of lying or dishonesty. I simply disagree and at times was very irritated….Good for him. Seriously. I'm not going to take anything away from that.

Thank you so much for helping me, Hermagoras, but these are crocodile tears from Sal. He has behaved like this over and over, and no one else got an apology.
This apology is a result of oleg (one of Sals future professors) following the train wreck. Sals behavioral decisions have no effect on my career. This 'apology' is for Sal and for Sal only.
So thank you to you, thank you to oleg, and thank you to the other commenters for your support. Sal can still piss off.

ERV,
My point in all this was pretty narrow: create the conditions for an apology for one point of net behavior. I badgered the shit out of Sal about it. I could say "not enough" or something about the apology was nested in whole bunch of other stuff, including misunderstanding after misunderstanding. But as Richard Dreyfuss said in What about Bob?, "Baby steps."
