Wim wrote..."I hope that this episode will be a learning experience on Samick's part..." Wim, I've no doubt Samick, and Ms. Jones, have learned something from this experience, but I suspect the lesson they learned wasn't the one you intended to teach. The "learning experience" with Samick could have been avoided by following a rule I learned a long time ago (the hard way) which is: Whoever requests the service pays the bill. For example; When a party requested that I submit my bill to a third party for payment I'd ask if they were confident that the third party will pay the bill in a timely fashion? And when the inevitable "yes" response followed, my reply was along the lines of "Fine, then you won't have a problem getting reimbursed". Mark Wisner
