Which one?

[Greg Newell]

Avery,
         I kinda figured but that does beg the 
question, what's the beef with the new one? There 
not even the same company! I think if I were out 
that much money I'd find it a tad hard to get 
over too but really, there not the same people. I 
feel for you though. I'd sure hate to loose all 
that money. Did you get something in the mail 
from the lawyers for claims against the company? I thought we all did.

best,
Greg
