Did you manage to get a hold of everyone? Haven't had any other interview requests since we spoke so you're good.

Here, just call him - 917-544-5471. His other number, possibly cell, is
845-482-3119. Try first one first, I don't know if he wants me giving out
second one but I'm sure he won't mind since I'm going to get him paid via a
legal defense fund (off the record for now).
