One other thing, only because I keep forgetting to mention it...the publishing
schedule was also kicked slantwise by a) September 11, and b) the desire to
drop in the script for issue 36 as a memorial to same. We kinda dropped
everything to make that work, and that also slowed things down on the
production side.
