Randy,
I want to thank you for giving this your attention. I'll certainly be disappointed to see OMNI go for a week, but if it means that a solution can at long last be reached, then the cost be d*mned! We'll get along without it for a week.
As the original poster on this thread asking for help and as an active participant in the brouhaha of the last 9 weeks, I'm, of course, available to answer any questions or provide any feedback, should you be soliciting it from those of us on both sides.
You have my email address above.
I know this isn't an easy topic, but my thanks, again, to you and to the TalkBoard for reviewing this and helping bring some wisdom to bear on the situation.
