Remember, I'm just commenting on appearances and wording, but all you 
have to do is read this thread to see that there are people offering to 
help and being refused.  And meanwhile there are things that aren't on 
schedule.  Or maybe there isn't a schedule - or maybe no one is supposed 
to expect one.

picture?
