Daniel,

I don't quite have 'accusations' of fraud against you. 

I have no evidences, nor have I heard that you forged facsimiles, for instance. 

The main written assessment of your 'documents' in the Internet, available to me so far, is the one made by Ernest Pelletier, which I have shared here today and -- for me -- constitutes an important testimony. 

Of course,  you cowardly slandered the Masters and HPB in your book on her "Esoteric World", published by Algeo's TPH.  You did so especially in the second edition, much worse than the first one, as Jake has shown us here a few months ago. 

But I am sure you will improve in time. 

You have already improved a lot since last February. 

Besides, evceryone deserves a second chance. 

Regards,   Carlos.
