No, it's good to blame me. I was trying to deal with it as fast as I
could since I was already trying to ignore my computer before I got
married last weekend and took the last week off. I realized when I got
back yesterday you hadn't picked it up and it was on my list of things
to try to handle today. I think both 1 and 2 are good to be applied to
your tree. Although only #1 is really an absolutely critical issue.
