A sound warning, indeed, Thinker, but as I noted I am proceeding along the same mojo path. I assume that the battle plan will not survive the first contact. I am operating under the assumption that continued, active DB'ing is the only axis of advance, because WAW is D'ing SP -- full stop. If, in some bizarro alternate galaxy, that doesn't happen, I'll be happy to be surprised.

@alive: My biggest fear? Hmmmm. Off the top of my head, I think it's that I'll have to redirect so much mojo to them -- and properly so -- that I will emerge in a far weaker position for myself, vis-a-vis coping with D. Like Charlotte in Charlotte's Web, I'll take the hit for them. Which is the right thing to do. But from a purely selfish POV does cause some concern.
