Thank you Sir. Also, I said nothing at the time as to origin of the BIEL telephone conversation information, in order to respect the anonymity you implied you desired and so as to avoid the guaranteed negativity you referred to. So I took that heat as well from the sources you predicted, never imagining what was to come.
Now that you have surfaced and proclaimed your authorship multiple times, with the help of your buddy, I salute your DD and initiative, as I did more quietly then, as I say, in support of you. As to your buddy, well, we can't fix that.
