Hi Rod,

[Responding to your call on October 25, 1999, and your letter later that same day on Peter Drucker's article on Atlantic Monthly ...]

Sorry I didn't get back to you but we are getting ready for a series of depositions and we have lawyers and clients coming in from all over. I know we will get to it, I just don't know when.

Regards,

Dave
