 Hey,

I find it interesting to know how Alan acts towards others,
and I have a lot of confidence in what Pär says. I know
from my dealings with Pär that he's a "good guy". I hope that the way Alan has handled his dealings with Pär isn't witnessing about his character 100% and that we all will be screwed, e.g. with the CD-ROM in mind.

I am just as excited about Alan's book and the CD-ROM as any other fan, but the way he's handled for example the orders for the CD-ROM, having had people pre-pay for it a looooooong time ago and yet not delivered anything and these days he keeps a very low profile giving out very little info, is not what I would expect from someone truly professional at what he does.

In a way, looking at Alan as a regular fan, doing something for the first time and making some less good decisions and now it's not in his hands etc, you could say it's what you could expect and nothing really harmful as long as he delivers in the end (which is still to be seen by the way).

Cheers,

Lennart
