' ~

the general interrogatories supplied with the first set are continuing, as writt en,_

andapplytobonthons as discovery on then comes open under the Board's 3-10 8S3 order; however I am supplying a copy.of the general interrogatories (revised per my 4 8-83 discussion with Applicants' attorneys 0"Neill and Carrow) at Applicants' request here "because (they) don't like to compare documents" and intend to continue to do so, assuning thereby that the general interrogatories and first group of ass other interrogatories on a given contention together comprise the "first round" under that order. I therefore assume responses to the general interrogatories in a set are not due until the responses to given other interrogatories (first group on a given contention) are due, and hereby grant that tine to Applicants to respond even if I should inadvertently fail to insert the general interrogatories in any future set of interrogatories. Please note that nothing here affects or impairs the continuing effectiveness of my general or other interrogatories to Applicants.
