Thank you Richard for getting back to me. I don't understand why you have
ignored all my other pmails for the last year to you? Others? Anyway, I will
take your word and good intentions on this matter. If I have offended you on
the vanagon list, then I apologize. In part, it is my wacky since of humor
combined with frustration. It is very unlikely that I will ever see the
certificate and will call this matter closed! Richard, please pmail me for
any continued conversation.

I have been off the vanagon list for some time and have forgotten how
"hostle" some of its members can be. Please don't anyone pmail me about
this. As far as I am concerned the matter between Richard and myself is
CLOSED. I did not want to post to the list, but it seems it was the only way
to get a response. I hope he answered, everyone on the list who did not
receive their certificates, questions.

Bill
