Bad form to ignore your request but I fear their hands were tied. Did you not communicate with Nicolas directly?
So do you end up going to FS now? Or did you cancel, if I may ask? I would gladly stay at FS over MO, but I am the minority here in this regard. Let me know if you need help with FS MRK.
A lot of frustration here due to this sad incident and you're not alone. Who would have thought!
