[Dx-qsl] 4M9YY

Mon Jul 26 23:26:14 EDT 2004

I have spoken to Scott and all is well.
Really I didn't know Scott from Adam and got the wrong
impression from the tone of Wilder's email that Scott's services
were unwanted.
As far as "taking the liberty of sending my email to him"
without asking for permission from me,
that is not correct behavior either.
For that reason I have not posted Scotts emails to me.
I think we can drop this now that Scott's role has been straightened out.
