Dear Taylor O'Brien,
Thank you for responding to my email. Unfortunately, I never received this reply on June 26. I don't know if this was an error on OPRA's part, but they keep of thread of the messages I receive and this message is not there. More importantly, the link to the material requested has expired. Is there a way to send an updated link so that I may retrieve the information?
Yours sincerely,
Kennedy Ross
