Far, far away: redux
May. 6th, 2008 10:30 amSo here is the update:
I can't fax it to him, because the marine sat fax he uses is out of special paper (and when you live far, far away, it takes time to get a refill.)
I can email it to him, but he only has email on his cellphone, and he can't open attachments unless he drives several hours away to a town with different cellphone technology (I have no idea what that means) so can I post the queries in the body of the email? (Answer: no.)
He does have friends coming to visit him on May 15, so I could resend them the CEM and they could hand deliver it.
And then after that it could take another two weeks to get back to us, not counting the time it will take him to work on it.
I am going to spend my time constructively converting the file into a tracked PDF.
And then I am going to calmly try not to kill him over the phone lines.
