I do have one strange question, while it is nice that they found and fixed the problem, what was the problem? while we gave our observations on what we "thought" the problem was, a simple ,yes you guys were right in your observations , or no it was something else would be nice.

That's great to hear. It is nice to see this bug squashed as quickly as it was. I still contend that this problem never should have made it live, and wouldn't have if this publish had been subjected to adequate testing, but I'm glad to see it fixed. Now, hopefully, this fix will be accompanied by a re-evaluation of whatever internal decision-making processes allowed it to be pushed live in the first place.

Devs: this patch needs more testing
Marketing: we either put it out to live now or wait until after the spring fling, and we've already said early february.

Sounds about right.

It's like someone told me that Duke Nukem Fornever was coming out for reals or something.
