Noted.

I had an idea or two that might help, if you want to use them. One of them is pretty amusing. I'll email you, if the email works.

I was a little worried about what people's expectations were. Like if I started tying up some plotlines to help, I'd be worried about the response of "why did you do that? you should have left it alone.."
