Ah, thanks. Now that I follow the links I realize that I had
read that before. When I was looking for a link earlier today,
I didn't think of following the "Jamie Guinan wrote:" link
I think because there's a horizontal rule splitting the sections
just above "Jamie Guinan drew", which made me think the sections
were totally unrelated...

Thanks,
