I'm totally on the side of the team in this kerfuffle. If Avi wants more information and consideration than he's been given thus far... well, I've been warned about telling people what they can blow out of where. You guys are doing a fine job and so is Avi. I certainly haven't forgotten all the many hours of code-monkeying he's done and that Hitler video he made will live in my heart forever and always make me smile.
I hope you get to feeling less prickly and exhausted, Little Bird. You really are one of my very favorite people!
