"Gene. The last thing i want is to stir up an argument on this same old issue"

I think you must like the same old issue.

"may have limited you to one piece of artwork, but they didn't force you to put out three chips."

The denominations and amount of chips were negotiated in a contract. The number of pictures to be furnished was not. Our bad.

Now you have one more piece of the puzzle, but I feel certain the same old issue will come up again.
