<div>Hi Paul-- thanks for receiving my comment in the most professional sense of the term as it relates to the economics of the LEED simulation & Compliance markets. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I didn't really feel it was unprofessional, but I didn't desire to offend anyone with the terms that i chose. I was pretty sure that I wasn't completely alone with the 'feeling' or sense I was getting from others comments I've seen with the forum (past & present).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I offer a sincere professional apology if my chosen adjectives offended anyone. (were they adjectives? I don't know I'm not an english major...) :)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Pasha<br><br></div>

<div>I hear that you are very frustrated with the review process, however, I find this kind of language inappropriate for a public forum and would ask that you take more care in the future.</div>
