All, I obtained the following from Yahoo's PSFT message board. No source for the info was provided.

They did not feel that was an appropriate forum to present their text so they backed out of the meeting. This was the reason given by the company...nothing more or less...." see post by MYBESTGUESS on Oct 13 1998 at 10:41PM EDT messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com
