I'll chime in here, because I think Mark was actually responding to my sugggestion about multi-sample imports in Specimen. I really like Pete's Specimen program, and I find it very useful. I think it's amazing that he's done it so quickly as a first project. Please just leave him alone, OK? He's already spoken; let it go. We all have complex reasons for choosing our projects, choosing our profession, marrying a certain person, etc. There is no way someone else can step in and understand all those complex reasons. When someone says "No!" it usually means at least "No." Perhaps I should add that I have myself had many bad experiences in trying to "channel a small amount of time" into a project. For me, this has never worked out. In fact, I consider that kind of talk to be a warning sign not to get involved. The more desperate the plea, the more likely there is doom ahead.
