Pine, I do not believe I was questioning the commitments of anyone, nor was I seeking to argue those points with you. I am simply saying, and I still believe this is true, that it's not an unreasonable observation that this is the weekend nor is it unexpected for people to take weekends off. Weekends are terrible times to release news, for the very reason that people are taking them off. Having some patience for Monday to arrive is not too much to ask at all.
