Who knows?  I sent out a letter right after Oleg finally posted some
additional and more specific information about how the whole thing
came about, trying to help her find it a little easier, and that's
the last I heard.  I suppose I could have sent another letter, asking
what was happening, but (and I know this might be hard for you to
relate to) I didn't think about it, since it wasn't real high on my
list of concerns.

Did you want me to check for you again?  (Frankly, I thought Oleg's
article on the subject was so clear, his recitation of the events,
who said what to whom, so that's-right accurate that finding the
actual article(s) would have been somewhat redundant -- maybe that's
why it didn't really occur to me to think about it any longer.  Have
you been losing sleep over it?  Sorry.)

I did find out that the article(s) date back a bit further than originally
thought -- August is the more likely month, rather than September.  Does
that help?

Really, SXM, didn't what Oleg wrote jar your memory at all?  Do you 
really need the original article(s)?  Aren't you already embarrassed
(and embarrassing) enough without them?

I should think you would be, but ...

If you really need to pursue it, I'll go ahead and see what I can do.
Or, if you want, I could send you the information, and you could check
with her instead.  (Try not to be offensive about doing it, though.)
