What did they ask for the RFE, if you don't mind?

I suspect it was an attempt to stall for time - they requested certified copies of my leases (they had non-certified ones) and documentation of a name change (they had that in my file from AoS).

Sometime 2002: Met on www.rondaksportal.com, started talking

March 2004: Visited Kim for the first time

July 2004: Visited Kim again - and she's not going to let me go back.
