OK guys.

1st - please move this topic back off the list as I'm
sure no one wants to become embroiled in it.

2nd - I have not been quick to respond to this because
my work has been taking up to 80 hours per week for
the last several months (75% of my department has quit
or been layed-off). I have not been involving myself
with the list because of this. I will continue to
help, but you're just going to have to deal with
my schedule.

3rd - While I will continue to help where I can, I
am not a lawyer and have no more authority than my
ability to remove people from this list. I don't
know what I can do to help other than nag.

I'd say it's obvious at this point that the package
is not going to show up. After talking to both of
you, I am relatively sure that there has been no
malicious intent.

You need to decide at this point to remedy this
situation either by making good on the trade and
eating the cost, giving up and deciding that it
was just a bad deal, or seeking legal action. I
would advise an amicable solution but if you
wish to continue to but heads I can't stop you.

Let me propose that I could probably find the
same equipment you traded in a relatively short
amount of time. If you wish, between the two
of you, to cover the costs of shipping I will
attempt to locate and ship to Enrico.

Please keep this topic off the list. Contact
me via private e-mail if you wish future
discussion.

Thanks guys. I sympathize with you both, but
lets keep this as reasonable as possible.
