It does not bother me that Hans is currently out of the game. He is still welcome here, and still treated with a degree of suspicion by some (myself included). However, if he truly is not holding Tyhee, I put it out there that he may live to see a day when he regrets that. Things can sour, or turn positive, in a flash. If he is waiting till risk and delays are reduced, then maybe he will be one of those jumping in as the ship readies to leave port. Fine, that helps propell the SP upwards when that time comes.

As for me, I am lousy at timing. So staying in, long and strong, is the way I choose to go!
