Jude, you only ordered 1 item and it was, unfortunately, in high demand. I believe this is the first time I've had a requester not get anything they ordered. I did actually get a couple more SX5 orders just today, I see, so if there's something else on the list you wanted, let me know. (By the way, you did omit your mailing address in your order.) Paul, your order is coming. You got everything you ordered. Although the circumstances over the last few weeks would have made it rather difficult for me to reply to or even read SX5 related emails in any case, I really am trying to avoid individual email replies. I'm sorry that my "radio silent" approach worries people. I'm not being intentionally rude, just trying to keep my head above water. Perhaps, if Dell doesn't summarily fire me before things ease up, I'll have the time to consider more personal interaction on future SXes. (SX5 - 735 packets were requested, 704 sent, before the orders that arrived today.) [Jane, we've worked on the packaging side of the NARGS exchange for many years now, and I concur with your every comment. Nothing dampens the enthusiasm like opening a donor packet and finding a huge wad of Clematis or composite fluff, most of which isn't seed and most of what is clearly not viable. You can tell seedex volunteers - at a NARGS conference one year, Cathy and I were introduced to a lady who peered at our name tags and made only one comment - "Ah! Marak - very clean seed." We didn't fully appreciate the compliment until we started packaging.] Steve On 3/28/2016 10:16 PM, Paul wrote: > >> Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2016 10:38:50 -0700 >> From: xerantheum@gmail.com >> To: pbs@lists.ibiblio.org >> Subject: Re: [pbs] SX5 >> >> On Mon, Mar 28, 2016 at 10:27 AM, The Silent Seed <tylus.seklos@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> >>> Just FYI - I followed the correct format, and nothing came of it. >>> > I also placed an order for sx5 directly to Steve and have heard nothing. Sent another e-mail and no answer. Finally sent an e-mail to Dell through the website to query if he knew of anything and for the third time heard nothing . I abandoned the queries after that. > > > Paul Otto > Brookings OR > > _______________________________________________ > pbs mailing list > pbs@lists.ibiblio.org > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/
