Well, I'm sorry, but it seems that I have totally forgotten
the technical arguments they were making, and I seem to be unable
to find it in my Email.

Since you just did that research for the determination of rough

argument and I would really appreciate if you could remind me,
so that I can address them in my draft--since they likely apply
to my draft.
