It is in response to that for the most part. So that Secret Santa is Turk, so it answers that question on whether it was received or not. I have had some emails on non-receipt, so I was addressing not just Turk, but those others as well. I totally understand not holding his hand John, but I was mostly looking to see if he received it because Turk didn't know. Thanks for answering.
