Knowing the many demands on your time, I regret to have to come back to you. However, despite repeated attempts, we are still locked out of negotiations over the wind asset and have been unable to receive information we've requested. Our phone calls have been returned, but information and/or a seat at the table have not been forthcoming. Can we discuss this again by pbone? Alternatively, as I suggested in a note to you on Monday, we stand ready at any moment to come visit you in person about this if you might have even 15 minutes for us. Again, apologies for coming back to you about this. But, it would be extremely helpful if you could assist us in being able to move forward on our interest in bidding on this business. Many thanks!
