Thank you for your concern, Cormac.
Toku and I are working in concert to handle inquiries; if I did not step in, it was because I did not feel such action was warranted at the time.
I am certain that Cid has been and will continue to be useful in assisting you. He is a very smart and very talented man. However, I must echo my colleague's sentiment - those who go will need to work together and follow the orders of a leader. I too am concerned that bravado of this nature may make one ill-suited for this manner of task, and I cannot risk that the other volunteers may be endangered.
