[23:20:01] <Bytram> chromas: thanks for letting me know about JR! He also sent me an admin-to-user update...
[23:20:32] <chromas> cool!
[23:23:08] <Bytram> JR is okay, but convalescence will take much longer than originally anticipated (talking months rather than weeks) but, at least he is allowed to go home tomorrow! He's very much looking fwd to that! He's got a buncha IVs which limits him to the first home and greatly restricts his typing. :/
[23:26:00] <Bytram> Sorry, was trying to read scrollback, while reading JR's A2U message and type synopsis here... finally caught up to now in #editorial!
[23:27:10] <Bytram> chromas++ I really feared I'd have to submit and approve my own story to get something palatable on the site this all-too-early-AM.... thanks so much for being there and pitching in so enthusiastically!
