[MF3D.FORUM:1044] Re: Joels folio

[Ernie Rairdin <ernie@xxxxxxxxxx>]

If it is Tom's folio we are talking about, I got it just before NSA and we
took an extended vacation to go to Mesa. I contacted Tom and he said to hold
it.  After I got back I made some attempts to comment on the veiws but
finally sent it on witout finishing all the comments.  Sorry about the part
of the delay that I caused.  I'm familiar with folios and understand the
need for speed so I will do better next time.

Sounds like Greg is having the same problem I had.
