Our correct address is listed above on our letterhead. We have been at this address since December 2003. Since tbe Trost Protectors bave been receiving correspondence with our current address on it up until March of 2007, we have to wonder about the competence of the Trost Protectors' Attorneys. It was only through happenstance that we just received a copy of the Order of Court dated August 9\".2007 and want to mak.e sure that any future correspondence to us is received.
