Well, after seeing the responsof other unpaid authors, I see that this
practice of late or no payments has been policy for a long time.  It's
hard to guess their motives, so maybe you shld just sue them.
I was really just talking off the top of my head.  I just hope you don't
lose any money by taking them on in our wonderful court system over the
course of possibly many years.

Good luck!.
