I don't know what else to say other than to reiterate that I'm sorry 
that I misunderstood you.

I didn't understand that the e-mail you sent to James constituted a 
change of direction from you and a new "proposal," and thought it was 
merely an exploration of possible options.

I think it was a reasonable mistake, but it was a mistake, and it was my 
mistake and I apologize for it.
