I doubt there will be any unpleasantness providing we maintain a professional and polite manner, and remember to encourage at every opportunity. Thanks all the same though. Besides which, I think you're going to be a pretty busy man yourself. I'm sure the three of us can handle it. How do the other Inquisitors feel about this?
