I’m sure you’re very busy as a Captain AND a Spectre, so if you think you won’t have the time please forget I asked. I’d be more than happy to pay you back with dinner or some more exotic teas or anything like that. > ><p align="left">I look forward to hearing back from you, Izre R. > ><p align="left">P.S.
