Thank you St_armands_man for keeping the hope alive for us by reporting your conversations with Tom Neuburry, and also providing your insightful interpretation of these conversations...
One thing that I always wondered about when it came to posters relating their conversations with management of a company. By doing so, you will be compromising your screen name as it will be obvious to some (Newburry in this case at least) who you really are as a person as opposed to having an anonymous screen name. Does that not bother you?
