@Vizlamom1...it never hurts to nudge, but her response rate is only 38%.

I'm assuming she just doesn't respond to everyone. Last year I queried with a project and got a response in two months. This year I queried with another project and it's been over two months with no response.

At 121 days with no response QT timed the query out. Maybe I need to follow up since people that submitted a query after me have gotten a response. Anyone heard of a lost query submitted through QT? Maybe this is a no response pass, but I don't know.
