Hi, I'm sending a new e-mail because I was just wondering about what you wrote, that you wouldn't use my name. I was wondering, has some mob, or something, said something bad about me, to you? Is this why you don't want to use my name? Yours sincerely, Erik Ribsskog ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Erik Ribsskog <eribsskog@gmail.com> Date: Thu, Feb 5, 2009 at 3:21 PM Subject: Re: Enquiry from Free Nations website To: Freenations <freenations@freeuk.com> Hi, yes, that would be fine, then I could see if something from the Arvato-case etc., was being used on your website. I just stumbled upon your website, when I search a bit about Bertelsmann on Google, but I'll try read up more about Freenations on a later occation.
