Okay, fair enough.

I'll admit that I assumed the request message was read within a week of 
being sent.  I guess I shouldn't assume that others' reading habits are 
the same as mine.

Perhaps.  I think my definition of what an RC should be doing may be a 
little different.  What I mean is that merely by accepting the position 
(as RC) a person agrees in principle to be more responsive than what we 
are talking about here.  I do understand that that is merely my opinion.

Another assumption on my part, yes.  Someone using a plain text editor 
would be the same timeframe.  Apparently there are other methods that 
take longer...  Okay.

Thanks for the explanation, and for reminding me not to assume too much.

Cheers.
