Hi Canie,

Yes I did as Bill Gates. I have a letter in my research materials from The Bill Gates Foundation advising "us" that he isn't interested. But I can't tell you who the other part of the "us" is. That's a well buried secret, well almost, about five scientists know about this project and they aren't going to tell anyone. But the project is history now. For the first time in my life I insulted someone about advertising. I said more spin is better, he said not, it was the he and she of everything with that person. He was totally outrageous. So in the end, he quit.

I apologized, he never did, he says "you are just the way you are" and whatever that means, he won't apologize and he's acting like an overgrown child. But he won't admit it. To bad because we would have worked well together. The sad part is, that as we couldn't get along, something truly wonderful would have been upon this planet today and now its gone.

Oh well, it is Monday....Pat
