No problem, it's been pretty busy here as well.

LOVED the story. Have to admit I'm bummed that Murdoc really is dead, though. I was holding out hope (until around Chapter 11 or so, I think) that he was actually still alive, somehow. Of course he wouldn't - couldn't - be and that's okay. It's just that I love the character, and his interaction with Mac, so much, it was a bitter pill to swallow. :-)
