Hi And those who want to help, want the requests to be polite and specific. This aggressive demanding style will not get you what you want. I'd had waited and saw that you hadn't been responded to, so I gave you answers to each of your questions. I then gave you a dose of your own medicine with your final demand. To which you couldn't acknowledge those questions I had answered satisfactorily.
