Wow! I think if my W sent me that I would fall backwards off my chair -- why does he feel like the victim? (Sorry if I missed that)

Definitely give him more time to think, but now you have options and you are in the drivers seat.

I like how he says that you will not be denied. I try to live by that, it's actually a song by Neil Young -- "Don't be Denied"
