Jed has shot from the hip, unfairly.
Steve's visit to interview Fleischmann at his house, prior to both of them
then going on to the Rome conference, was organised and agreed over three

Not exactly. Martin and his daughter told me their side of the story.
Steve decided that as there was to be no interview we might as well
buy Martin some flowers and a get well card. We delivered these in
person and were met by

As before, I thank you for your opinions. And certainly Bill Beatty is wise
