Dear Mr. Feldman,
You are correct. It was a bad judgment call on my part not to include a text
file explaining why the data was deleted. I will be more careful in the future.
Sincerely,

I can't help but making the observation that if Omega Research's intent was as
your stated above, wouldn't you have included text files (I am referring also
to the contemporaneous SPX problem) with your explanation AT THE TIME of
posting the original individual data files on Omega's ftp server? But
instead, the text files with the explanation were posted about 24 hours later,
after it became a "big deal" "advertised" on this the Omega-List, etc.
Only trying to keep the record straight for everyone...
