HKer - whilst I take your point about calling the AOA, I was actually addressing a wider issue. Of course I phone them when I want to know something but when we're all in a STRATEGIC battle together, the last thing the AOA needs is 1400 people phoning up to ask the same question.
Hence my thread about communication.
We now have some so I feel encouraged. That's all I asked for so I think you could direct your rather aggressive comments elsewhere and stop trying to teach Grandma to suck eggs...
