To: "John Blanton" <[email protected]>Well, there you go again, twisting my intent into a challenge. What is this with you good ole' boys and challenges? My e-mails to you have no financial interest. It was and remains a response to your derogatory remarks. You may occasioinally print a letter, you do have a guest message return board, but unless you've hidden a link, there is no "letters" section. Interesting that you would insist on posting my correspondence in the "challenge" section. I do not recall making any. Hmmm, only the second?
You can watch Elizabeth's site along with the many others who do. I'm sure you will continue to poke your rhetorical stick in the gopher hole. I did notice that Elizabeth's site has been accessed over ten times more often than yours. Just who is fading from view? Have all the "fun" you want, the credibility in question is your own.
Later.

To: Robert Cioffi <[email protected]>Robert,
I apologize if the "challenge" reference is abrasive to you. I will knock off such references in the future.
Right you are. There is no specific "letters" section in the newsletter, and the only such section on the Web site is the guest book. That's sort of what goes for letters on a Web site. Maybe later we will create a special Elizabeth Joyce section and move all the correspondence there.
I'm sticking your correspondence in the Challenge section, because that seems to be the appropriate place for now. I agree, you are not challenging us for the $10,000 and do not intend to make any specific claims beyond what you did in the prior correspondence. You only said Elizabeth Joyce was really good, but you were not too specific as to what she is good at.
Yes, only the second since the first of September. See Robert de Boer's inquiry about the challenge. Just go to the Challenge link at the Web site main page and check out the part about Robert de Boer. We had considerably more correspondence than is shown there now, but I have been too busy to post it all. Maybe later this weekend.
Wow! You're right. Elizabeth Joyce is getting hits up a storm. Maybe we skeptics are in the wrong business after all. Thanks for clueing us in. Anyhow, follow this section for the coming months and see if you think we are as good as Elizabeth Joyce in predicting the future. That's about all we can offer. Elizabeth Joyce seems to offer other services, but we will just stick with the predictions.
Best regards,
John Blanton
