Ben, I called CBM to inquire about MindMovies, not Leary specifically. As I mentioned in a previous message (to someone else, I believe), the software folks were very helpful. But, to your comment about it being a stupid, time wasting question – that may be true, in their eyes. However, they never found out what the question was, because the "appropriate people" couldn`t be reached for comment. It's happened before. That in itself isn't necessarily a problem nor does it indicate that CBM won't answer questions – only that slow – or no – response makes it difficult to report the companies plans, reactions etc. One final "however" and I'll drop the subject: Those who complain about fair and accurate coverage shouldn't complain too loudly when the stories see print without offsetting comments by a company official. If the company doesn't comment, then there are no company comments. What CBM or any other organization sees as a dumb questions, may not seem that way to customers or other concerned folks. -Jim
