Eric, it is my considered opinion that, especially in this case, active hands are infinitely more efficacious than praying hands. That is why I like to do as much business as I can locally--where it is possible to reach across the counter and explain things while shaking them warmly by the throat! I don't think I'd pull anything shady on Ed, even if he does live a state away. I think there's some mix-up beyond the "usual". Actually, I'm worried about Eugene, if all this is happening. Has anyone heard from him in these last six weeks?
