steve, i never said i wasn't going to pay you. i said i wanted to
discuss who got paid again with al. and per my last email to you
saturday, i said if you would (publicly or privately) withdraw your
accusations about "stolen property" (so i wouldn't later have any
problems, if it came up) i would send your money today. i didn't get to
my mail yesterday, so i don't know what was your response.
and, this is certainly not the type of discussion we should be having in
a public forum. you can make accusations and counter-accusations to try
to get your will accomplished, but in the end it just makes you look
foolish. i will read any mail from you tonight will respond
appropriately. i apologise to the group that i ever posted my note and
inflamed steve's vitriol...i was just confused by his statement,
especially the stolen property bit (as i am the one getting those
springs from al). i will not respond to any more postings from steve
publicly on this issue.
