I know, but I can wish :) We already talked about some of the Mass checking methods SARE uses, and how that just won't work for SA. Which is why we use 1-2 SARE people to take our stuff and submit it to SA. No sense in us all doing it.
We try to keep the flacky crazy SARE members away from the SA devs. Especially during Hockey playoff season!
