[Hidden-tech] [SPAM] Re: Website development comparisons?

[Deborah Chandler]

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your very accurate feedback. It's not harsh in my opinion. I am
not looking for a website for myself, but rather was approached by someone
to sell websites for Market America, and wanted to get a better overview of
the competition.

I would like to compare notes on Market America, but backchannel. I'll send
you a private note.

Thanks,
Deb
