Apologize for something that was 15 years ago?

dude, its always a great idea to apologize even if it takes 15 years to do so.

it shows how big of a man you are when you admit that your wrong or apologize, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at you

im probably not a bigger man than you so ill just sympathize.

Scot, remember the movie Billy Madison where Billy apologized to someone he was a jerk to in high school. The guy scratched his name off of his 'people to kill list.'

The life you save could be your own.

Agreed....

Apologize. You'll feel so much better afterwards, regardless of their reaction. A guilty conscience after 15 years is not something to keep avoiding.

Wow, what did you say Scot that you remember 15 years down the line? If you made fat jokes, forget it, that's water under the bridge. Little booby jokes, forget that too. Dead parents jokes or a misplaced "way to think that abortion through" joke may require an apology. An apology would not be the first thing out of my mouth when I saw them, you have to ease into the apology if you want to sound sincere about it. The fact that you remember the incident 15 years later should tell them something about your character.
