Thank you for your posting, and especially for disclosing that you are
presenting things from a vendor's viewpoint.  I must assume that you know
about the facts reported in your article and that you are responsible for what
you say.

I have began checking out your statements and I have already come accross
quite a few problems even in your first paragraph.  Because most readers have
a limited attention span, I'll point out just one inconsistency between what
you say and what the court records say.

You say above, "She [Lori] did NOT go bankrupt".

The court records say that Lori McConkey, born 15 Apr 1963 [are we talking
about the same Lori McConkey?], filed for bancrupcy 3/9/93 and the file was
discharge on 3/6/94; the file number is 33-068488 and the trustee is Salewsk
Paul Evan.  Unless a transcription error has occurred, then this info is
accurate.  I am as falliable as anyone, of course, so please correct me if I'm
wrong.  The foregoing records are in the public domain and available to
anyone, as far as I know.

If the foregoing info is correct, then you have to explain your statement that
"She [Lori] did NOT go bankrupt".

A second question: do you want me to continue to check your other statements
and refute them if they are wrong, or would you prefer that I stop here?  The
choice is yours, but if you don't post a response I'll continue to verify.
For the time being, you will understand why your credibility in my eyes has
been eroded.
