Wait a minute... You TOLD John K.... You TOLD HIM, Like you KNOW HIM, 
actually speak to him?  Oh My GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Hero!  

If you speak to him, I would like to know his point of view on what was 
happening with the episodes and Nick. Could he write up something and give 
it to you to transcribe to all of us? 

I really want to know: Did he really agree to a particular set of 
storyboards and then ink out differently.  Stuff like that.

Everything we have seen so far has been media press.  Mostly from Nick.  I'd 
really like to hear it from his point o view.

I have our networked fax set to autosend a letter I wrote to nick and viacom 
telling them that they have really blown it with firing John K. 

Why dont they air R&S at 10:pm for ADULTS and show the episodes.  Even at 
9:pm, most of my friends have their kids to bed at 8:00? 

I too will follow John K to his next animation adventure!
