| Two to five times a day. Oh, the dashed hopes!
Craig, I was beginning to think you worked for the government---the only other place I know where an estimated 1 day for a job regularly turns into a week...  |

| Well, I knew it was going to be delayed, I was in constant contact with Craig, and I STILL was checking at least 3 times a day. I had Conspiracy Theories flying around left right and centre with the Fantasy Land crowd and I started to formulate some myself. But we are back and that is ALL that matters!!!
