Harry,

Please forward my US$100 to John Herring. He is acting as my proxy.

Thank you in advance,
Alex

I'll be delighted to send the proceeds to you at your name and at your
street address in Florida. You can forward the needed info to me at:



I don't deal with racists like Herring or with proxies. That wasn't
part of the wager when it was made, and I don't accept those as
modified terms.

I don't plan on being "here" much, so please communicate to the
above-referenced email at your earliest convenience.

Thanks.
Let's run this down...

1) You certainly won't be delighted to pay - everyone knows that.
2) The wager was simple and clear.
3) No "modification" of terms is requested - there were no terms.
4) It's really none of your business, but I owe John $100 for a
charitable arrangement we made and the timing of your loss is perfect to
help facilitate that. You aren't against charity are you?

Why am I not surprised that you would try to slither out of a
gentleman's bet?


As soon as you email me your actual name and actual street address, I
will send you the payment. If you want to send $100 to Herring, that is
your business, and not my concern. I am not "slithering" out of
anything. I am not going to change my mind, nor am I interested in the
comments of your buddies here on this matter.

My email:



Another entry for your database of names and addresses? I would advise
Alex to not do so. It's up to you as to whether you will honor your
obligations or not. Seems like you won't without imposing new conditions.


Also dont try to test his moose and tree rat email. It could
reveal your email address to him if it's real.


It's a real address. I responded with my seldom-used gmail address.
It's really only there to backup my phone contacts.


I was gonna say that when he'd write to chew on me off line, he'd use and there was another Mindspring.com he'd use too. How many email addresses does a person needed? I have only two. one is gmail and the other is AOL (wwhich I rarely use anymore)
