He's reading them. You have to include his address that's all. He didn't say so in hs response to me, but apparently he's checking his "waitlst". See the post he replied to just after your post. He replied to that emal. I suspect too many responses, of the ones that do think to copy hiim, are being too condescending to keep his attention. Plus most are not replying to him, which has to be done in this case; they're rather talking around him and complaining rather than trying to fiigure out what to do.
