The important bit of my email was actually the bit you've omitted :) But I'm not claiming anything about what you said or know, I'm trying to explain what he said. Whether or not it was directly relevant to your particular situation is immaterial. Please reread my second paragraph, as well as other messages from other people saying much the same thing in different words. Good night :)
