This sort of e-mail isn't particularly helpful. In essence, you've |
15 |
baldly called somebody a liar in public, while providing no evidence |
16 |
to support your allegation. You might get better results if you at |
17 |

18 |
if you're sure that you do) and ask for clarification based on what you |
19 |
think you know. Here's an example: "That last paragraph doesn't seem to |
20 |
agree with what I've observed, where .... Could you explain where the |
21 |
