Once again, I never once predicted the extension. You must be confusing me with Marcis. Feel free to reread my posts, you won't find anything about an extension as it caught me by surprise too.
Unfortunately, I don't choose sides and then do DD to suit, I go wherever my DD takes me. In this case I think it isn't all sunshine and roses, but I try to explain the "why" so if I'm wrong about something someone can correct me. So far few have tried, but many have criticized me for having a contrary opinion.
Personally, I am going to turn this delay into a blessing... I will take a hiatus during the holidays and sit down to read both the response and the reply on January 5th.
