Re: Dave Hord is OK by me, so I'll cut him some slack . . .

Here here.  I have had limited dealings with Dave, but I have no reason to
think that he is trying to "hurt" anyone.  Being a full time student can
take WAY TO MUCH out of a person.  Being a full time lister like some of
here ( Phil Payne :) ) can be even more time consuming.  I believe Dave will
do what he said, he is just managing his priorities.
