Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No -- same page design, but the current code loads two 700+ pick lists with two separate sets of jaunts to the database. I do not want to do that. I understand that a pick list is mandatory for the user IDs, and will cave on the e-mail addresses), but we can grab the info for both lists in just one set of hits on the database, instead of two.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

OK, I think I see what you're saying. I'd have to check at home to see exactly how I coded it to be sure I get it. I put in two separate SQL queries? Bad Jon!

Two separate functions -- one per list.

Right. I remember now. Do you want to hold off on implementation, or were you planning to recode it? I won't be able to get to it probably until late next week.

Are you ready to be strong?

Hey you know what would be cool for the search engine? If we could search for posts by so-and-so or about such-and-such within specific DATE parameters. Don't you guys agree?

P.S. Thanks for all your amazing work, y'all.
