Facuru,

Its late in Bajul and am so busy right now doing some
BBC late night jobs. I will make a detail reply to
your mail. By the time am finished with this issue you
understand why i had to take Charles to task. I am on
the ground here so i know what am doing. But since you
started the debate on this forum expect my reply.
Thanks,

E Sillah
