Steve M., Since you have time to post here, but do not have time nor the inclination to return my emails or telephone calls, I have little to no choice but to post here in hopes that you will see this and respond to it.
I need for you to send me the original hinge block that you promised me one week ago. I am so sorry to all of the other list members that I must resort to using this list in this way. It will not happen often, nor maybe ever again. This is such an unusual and unexpected circumstance, that I have no other options at this point. Please everyone try to forgive me for doing it this way. But I have exhausted every other option.
