Nothing I can share here. And remember, anything you might be reading on any blog is no better than unsubstantiated rumor, based on second or third hand information at best. Everybody knows somebody who has a cousin whose brother-in-law works on... fill in the blank. Or my personal favorites, the "unamed sources" or "speaking on the condition of anomymity..." No more than internet busy-bodies; the modern equivelent of a bunch of cackling old hens.
