If you guys need another AI to stop by once you've started 'breaking him in' (BAD WORD CHOICE NENE!) I can stop by. Jeph's given me clearance to use Starbug 1, so I wouldn't be tied to the delivery schedules.

No plan survives contact with the enemy. Certainly, even if Sylia hadn't told me that a lifetime ago, I found it out firsthand more than once. It doesn't sound like you have too many potential points of failure, though.
