Yes, I am. However, I will not betray the trust that was placed in me 
by one or more individuals who are in no position to defend
themselves. This is one of several reasons I have been in such a 
bad
mood lately.

Respectfully,

Les,

If any entity within the group (s/he/it in the singular or any 
combination) has verifiable evidence that a project has been wrested 
from said entity by a mentor, then this must be addressed.

I would not ask you to betray a trust by revealing names.  It seems 
unlikely though that said entity will come forth to address the 
issue.

It would be convenient to know some of the details of the incident to 
address ways that such could be avoided in the future.

I used to do business with a handshake and a smile - my word is my 
bond.  Now - unless I really know the individual with whom I am 
conducting business - there is a written contract that spells out 
duties / responsibilities / obligations / remuneration / termination 
/ et cetera.

So, why else have you been in such a bad mood recently?


All the best....

Mike
