Sorry to put this on the list, but since Scot felt it was necessary to do
so, I am responding to him and any others who may be interested.

Scot,
I asked you to send mail to Avid for a couple of reasons...

1.  I *have* talked to them about your last post and so they were
expecting mail from you.

2. E-mial is *not* a long distance call for most people (maybe it is in
Florida?)

3. Since you have already had problems with dealing with Avid on the
phone, I thought e-mail may be better. I know there are people that
respond to e-mail at Avid.

I have absolutely nothing to do with subscriptions, distribution and other
business operations at Avid. Furthermore, I know nothing of your
situation.I felt that a direct mail to Avid would get you better results
than you have had in the past.

I'm sorry that you've had problems in the past, but I thought that you
would at least try the e-mail thing before starting to swear at me.
