Good stuff!

All in all, that is a great improvement! Loads much faster. But those lines admittedly piss me off. Why are they there?

Karl, Sorry we didn't get a chance to meet. Next time...

I'll be tending the bar there. Look for me.

Ben, You worked hard on those live maps. I cherish that feature and use it regularly. Keep it.
