I totally agree here, we should always implement
things and get them working properly before we get
them working fast, or else we become like the evil
empire ;)

ok well if it is doable, i believe we should do it,
why focus on the stuff that is _truely_ hard and that
we may possibly not know jack shit about when we can
get the _easier_ (not necessarily easy) stuff out of
the way first, that will lead to a more solid codebase
with which to work with.

 yes please, do get better soon, i may be coming down
 with something myself, my friend/roommate's ex may be
 the one that gave it to me too :(  she is in the
 hospital now with an abcess on her tonsils, and i may
 have (somehow) gotten something from it, as I now
have
 a sore throat...
