Amadou Janneh:

What are you talking about? What do you mean? Have you seen (in advance) the
content of the letter I am going to send to Representative Johnny Ford?  By
the way, didn't I say in my e-mail to Saul Khan that I'll send Rep Johnny
Ford a "full and considered" reply? What are you insinuating, my brother?
Have I not handled similar cases in the past, carefully? I am really
surprised to have received such an e-mail from you of all people. My
brother, you have nothing to teach/lecture me about writing letter to
people, okay! I know what is acceptable behaviour and what is NOT. And next
time, you send me a similar e-mail, my response would be harsh in tone.
Right!
