That's why I used the term "nagging" in my post. Conversations were always initiated by me. I asked probably the same questions 50 times in different ways. As an example a few replies from Bigwill. After my 1st PM, "Let me know when you buy your speakers."
And then after the 50th PM from me. "WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO BUY SOME FRIGGIN' SPEAKERS?!!!!!!!!"

Lucky for me, very few board members used restraining orders.
