Posting a message to this list is considered sufficient efforts. If you are not available or ready to provide such answers to this list I will not be insulted if you refrain from answering. In fact, I'll regard you more highly for controlling yourself. Now, quite seriously, this thread is closed. Email me privately if you wish to continue. Thanks.
