Sometime things are said in the heat of argument that one regrets later. Sometimes those things even have the word “sorry” in them….
Dear Sorrywatch:

No apology at all!
Dear No apology at all!:
You’re right, that isn’t an apology. It’s the reverse. We’re very sorry you got that instead of the real thing.

No, you calm down.
Ooooooooo… I predict trouble…
I would write it down verbatim, and ask him to read it at a later time. The response would tell you all you needed to know.
