I just got a threaten-y letter from a law firm about a past due bill for Releases 23 and 24 of a publication. Just one problem: my records indicate that we cancelled that subscription in 2004, and haven't received any releases since Release 10. I called them up, and the guy told me that their records don't show that it was cancelled. But if wasn't cancelled, then why didn't anything ship? Something doesn't smell right, and this may not be an isolated incident. Tracey R.
