On "ambiguous," Edgar, in the real world I plead mea culpa. In showbiz, there
is always wiggle room. Actually, my first draft had the words "pencilled in" for
Dustin but I have friend in L.A. who edits my stuff and I edit hers. She
rephrased it to "may" and added his Oscar which I had overlooked. Once a
release is out of our hands there is little one can do unless they rewrite it in
a way to become damaging to someone in which case one can always sue. There
would be no way to keep such press going and next to impossible to get
retractions. Fortunately, with the press, a week is a year and few stories are
remembered much longer than a week. I'm sorry it caused you and doubtlessly
others in the Cz list some inconvenience but it is over now, I am certain.

Cheers,
Andy

Andy...

As increasingly I have to explain to Jewish friends from Romania the
(unrealistic) background for the press campaign in Romania related to this item,

I don't agree at all to "keep disinformation going", as in my opinion at the end

of the day our own credibilty will be damaged. I'm sorry to say, but I don't
think either, that your initial press release was unambiguous. However thank you

for your clarification!

Best wishes!
