They IGNORED MY CLUE.
That doesn't mean they shouldn't pay me the REWARD MONEY.
I'm waiting for them to contact me ~ but apparently they are not at all confident of their final decision.
The reward was for "information leading to the arrest and conviction" of the anthrax mailer.
A "clue" is unlikely to fit that requirement unless it's a "smoking gun" clue, like movies of Ivins mailing the letters.
And, technically, since Ivins was never convicted, there can be no reward - even if you had movies of him mailing the letters. But, some lawyer might take your case on a contingency basis.
CLUE?
