    Any word on Susana, Sykora, Stuart or Herz? Susana was throwing from theound 2 weeks ago, but I haven’t seen anything since. Herz got shut down a week ago, but for how long?

    And Stuart and Sykora’s TJs were almost a year ago now, which is when you start ramping up activity, so there should be some info, even if the update is just “they need more time”.
