I don&#8217;t know if this is the <em>same<\/em> Christopher Scully with whom C|Net corresponded, or even if this is maybe just someone who made up an email account this morning; they&#8217;re using an &#8220;official&#8221; Hotmail email address. Consequently I&#8217;ll treat this communication rather casually. I think it&#8217;s reasonable to expect that the real Scully would at least use a more official email address if everything was legit.<\/p>\n<p>So for entertainment value I&#8217;m posting that email in it&#8217;s entirety here. If it&#8217;s someone actually associated with IAVRT, please come out into the light and let everyone know just exactly who you are and explain\/answer some of the things raised (that gives you what most of us would call &#8220;Credibility&#8221;).<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>In addition, if and when I hear from the real people behind IAVRT, should they express the same concerns and make the same comments, I&#8217;d strongly dispute the claim that I&#8217;ve posted &#8220;false&#8221; remarks. Rather, I believe I&#8217;ve posted conjecture and hypothesis based on what little real information is available to me. In fact, I&#8217;ve even corrected people who, in my opinion, have ventured too far from speculation on this matter.<\/p>\n<p>If I <em>have<\/em> overstepped my bounds and mistakenly made an error in claiming something definitive, I would certainly expect the other party to quote those passages which they would wish stricken or amended; after which I&#8217;d take it under consideration and act appropriately. After all, I do try to be fair and believe that on plenty of occasions that effort is apparent. However, I&#8217;m not perfect, so specifics are more than helpful, they&#8217;re necessary.<\/p>\n<p>On to the entertainment&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>To Rebang:<\/p>\n<p>New announcements will be made over the next several weeks about IAVRT and the Neuronet, which will eliminate concerns over legitimacy.  I would ask that you withhold passing judgment until then. <\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, you have posted some false and very damaging remarks about hard-working people including the owners of the firm IAVRT contracted for web development. <\/p>\n<p>Please immediately remove all references to theorized associations between IAVRT and the individuals named on your ReBang weblog.  You have published libelous statements which will be pursued legally if they are not removed immediately. <\/p>\n<p>Directly related to the false and damaging assertions you have made IAVRT has been forced to temporarily suspend its Sunrise pre-registration process effective immediately.  Be advised, the organization may take legal recourse to pursue damages caused by your weblog. <\/p>\n<p>The Sunrise pre-registration process will resume after additional announcements have been made concerning major partnerships and the naming of IAVRT&#8217;s new Executive Director. <\/p>\n<p>Chris Scully<\/p>\n<p>IAVRT<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;re all looking forward to those quotes.<\/p>\n<p>{btw, this &#8220;Neuronet&#8221; should not be confused with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.neuronet.com\/\">the other one out there<\/a>.
