  Wow, I drop out for a weekend and ... stuff happens. I'm confused and still playing catch-up, so maybe I shouldn't have voted in the poll until I have a better grasp of what's going on, but my knee-jerk thinking is to just do whatever it takes to get things resolved permanently, be it paying out or moving house. I don't know what all (or any) of the legal bits and bobs are that would need to be nailed down to make sure you get a clean get-away. If it does come down to paying out, $2k does not sound like a lot of money from where I'm sitting, particularly if it means a permanent end to this foofaraw, but I can understand that, depending on situation, it can be an insurmountable sum ... so I guess I'd even be on board with the solicitation of community donations in suitably small quantity. There are enough users here that drumming up the necessary funds would run around $1 a piece. Perhaps that's more trouble than it's worth, though.

  Thanks for keeping us informed, guys. The transparency, while at times difficult and unpleasant, is appreciated.

  Finished my thought too quickly ...

  I do mean "whatever will work" to include the caveat that the solution be one that takes the higher ground, if at all possible.
