I think they had the right to do it for the same reasons Ray does.  I don't
think they should have done it, and you already know why.  

He shouldn't be surprised that they finally decided to pull the plug.  He was
told by people in the news group that Shaw could and would do it for basically
any reason they chose.  He didn't learn from Ms. Amero's identical experience
with Chebucto, or whatever it's called.

I've been too busy to answer your questions.  I'll try to do it tonight or
tomorrow.
