Re: Welty fund

[john <john@domain.elided (nospam)>]

Bill,

I hope you didn't construe my message as a slight on your character
or the excellent intent of what you want to do.  Mine is a pragmatic
approach in getting the funds directly to Richard, that way there
is no question about anything.  Not that there even was a question!

I want to clearly state that I think what you've proposed is 
fantastic and I believe that your intent was absolutely honorable.

Why should you bother getting in the middle of things if we can
get the funds directly to Richard?  Think of the possiblity, you
get the glory without the hassle!

Bravo Bill!  Thanx for your concern for Richard and taking action.
