Hi Robert,

First of all, let me wish you a great 2002!

In your message #571724 (22/10/2001) you gave me a briliant idea: "I've been thinking about this. If you really want the Fox story, why don't you just call David Fulton. His number shouldn't be hard to find. Try David Fulton in Washington state on Anywho.com. His wife is named Amy. I'd think he would be happy to tell you the history.", and I didn't forget it as you'll see.

I was not sure in how to contact Dr Dave, but as the end of the year was getting closer, I had the idea to send him a Christmas card to (maybe) start an approach, so that was what I did. As you suggested I made a search in anywho.com and got Dave and Amy Fulton address. That done wrote and subscribed the Christmas card, having the care to add my email address (just in case..) and the link to www.FoxProHistory.org.

Today morning when I looked at my email box what did I see? An email massage from Amy Fulton! I really got excited and clicked over it to read the message...

It reads:

Dear Mr. Fernando J S Alvares.

My name is Amy Fulton. My husband David and I reside in the Everett area and recently recieved a Christmas card from you addressed to Dr. David Fulton and Mrs. Amy Fulton... The reason I am e-mailing you is that I believe you desired to mail this card to the "David and Amy
Fulton" of Bellevue. Unfortunatley I do not have their address...


Over the last four years we have received mail, phone calls and e-mail for Mr. and Mrs. Fulton of Bellevue, yet I never have met them, and would love to contact them regarding this matter, yet I do not have their phone number or address as they are unlisted. If you would be so kind as to pass along this information to us, or perhaps inform the Fulton's of this ongoing incodent, feel free to have them reach us at (xxx) xxx-xxxx.

Thank you for your time, and have a wonderful holiday season.

Amy and David Fulton
xxxxx xxth Ave SE
Everett, WA xxxxx

Wasn't that amazing! Can you imagine what I felt reading the message? Imediatelly I tried another anywho.com search, this time adding "Bellevue" to the city, and there was no David or Amy Fulton in the list returned by the search.

I'm still thinking about that. Is it a big coincidence or what?

Anyway, your idea was a great one, and I thank you very much! (thought you would like to know about)

Regards,

Fernando
