<HTML>Dr Duncan Edlin,
Thank you for the update. If you do need 9 months, I will most certainly grant it to you, as long as it is clear that this is the deadline, and it makes knowing when to expect a reply easier to manage.
I understand that your original 'brief' reply is how you feel, but this is not acceptable as you know and have now acknowledged.
Therefore I look forward to your summations in regards to my own after you have been afforded the personal time to complete the task. If there will be any further delays, please contact me with a frame of reference.
Thank you.
Yours,
R. Avry wilson</HTML>
