[eia] Apologies


Here's the boiled down version of the emailed conversation between Kyle and
I today:

KYLE:  Heads up.  There's this rule about St. P that I want to check that
you're interpreting this way.

J.J.:  No, it should be interpreted this other way.  Read 8.2.1.1.

Kyle:  OK, but I'm pretty sure Mike is interpreting it this other way.

J.J.:  You'd better tell him, then.

Kyle:  I already sent him an email.

J.J.:  OK.

Time passes...

J.J.:  So what did Mike say about that email ?

Kyle:  He hasn't answered yet.  What if Mike went back and changed his
orders ?

J.J:  This is similar to the rule mistake Jim just made about his supply
lines.  Maybe they should both go back and change their orders, if we're
going back at all.

Kyle:  Sounds good.

Other than critiques of the Two Towers, this is the sum total of our
discussion today, which started out as a one-to-one heads up from Kyle, and
only continued one-to-one because we hadn't heard back from Mike, yet.  I
did not intend to handle the matter in any way which was improper or
impolite, and if I have done so, I apologize.

-JJY
