After that, there was a gap. Then there was a request for people to review a second round of proposals, and I declined to be involved in that. The reason I declined was that I was moving back from Korea to Canada.
After that, I was asked by Western to help with theirs, but that was totally after the first evaluation, and I had nothing to do with the second. And I had nothing to do with the one that led to this conclusion.
