Hacker, Oh, I know you're absolutely right. It would all work out in the end IF I were a patient person. The sad part about this is that I'm about done with trying, just as he's getting started. Of course he's not tired of this... he spent almost a year on sabatical from the whole R, before he jumped back into the fray. [sigh] At least we make up with one another now. That's always fun.
I read your thread today, and all I can say is "Hmmmm... very interesting." Not much you can do about what she plans on saying or on her motivations. Probably best not to think about it for now. Let's hope that she only puts a wrench in things if she really means it. Take care. --z
