I too was surprised, but I offered websites for Fitch and SW&P and tried to make things as easy as possible. Who knows, maybe somebody was looking for a story to fill space? Anyway, anytime they respond back and ask questions I will respond. I got three e-mails from the editor after my initial email and it responded to every question and provided easy to check references and made suggestions as to the significance. It was amazing.
Well don't get all nipply. They were probably laughing at you behind your back.
I can almost guarantee that you will be disappointed with anything (if at all) that appears in that rag.
