Thank you, Solstice. It's encouraging to know that these things are on the table, at least as much as they can be. Since Bob in the past has shown a willingness to shorten blocks a bit, perhaps we could follow that up. I think he said that he would do it, but that he would like to see a parallel reduction in incivilities on our parts. That seems fair. Still, 10% would not make enough difference for the very long blocks. Is there any discussion of a cap on blocks? Almost everyone who has given their views on this topic wants a cap of a few weeks or a month. And on a related topic- the formula that results in long blocks- is changing it or eliminating it under consideration?
Sorry for all the questions! You have gotten us quite a ways towards solving some of the problems which have concerned us, so, of course, we are going to show our appreciation by bringing up even more of them...
