Sorry, but no thanks from me.

Why?  I don't think there is anything to talk about.  Or did you find
out what Richard's plan is?  Last I read was that it's not what Joao had

And, to be honest, the papal bulls concerning CL packages, in ignorance
of one's own ignorance, the non-answers, etc.---I don't want to have to
deal with that.
