Hi:

 I am currently modifying my web site to include many new pictures in a new format as well as some protocol information.  On a daily basis I have a ton of both e-mails and voice mails to answer.  I and finding people have questions they can easily get answered by reading my site.

 The major problem I am experiencing is the lack of verification information provided.  I will no longer accept phone calls from NEW people who have not read my site and have not e-mailed me verification information (and from private numbers).  My site will be updated to reflect this change during the next week or so.

 Bottom line is I don't have time to play pen pal or telephone tag (between school, my real business and personal life).  Sorry to sound stern but what is occuring is those requesting appointments are not getting them because I am experiencing an administrative nightmare which is counter productive.  I tried to make my site more personal, but it seems I am going to have to ask straight out for verification information for new contacts (which sorry to say will sound more businesslike).

 Thank you for understanding.  As most of my regular friends know, I never keep information and will remember you once we have met.  I will also NEVER contact you by mail or phone, unlike what I am again hearing is happening to some of my friends by other providers soliciting "business."  Rest assured your information remains only in my head! You may also use me as a reference in order to see another provider in the future.  I cannot and will not bypass this strict verification process as a few gents have discovered in the past week (don't tell me about agencies that do, yadda..I will NOT make exceptions).

 Have a great week and enjoy this wonderful weather!

 Many hugs, Kate            [email protected]
