Guys,

They're are pouring out of there like...well, as fast as they can!  I'm
sorry not to respond before, but its hard to nail down an exact date when
accept to say they all should be completed in two or so weeks.  I'm down for
shipments for a day or two right now waiting for vactrols to arrive, but I
am building up to this shortage anyway.
