Hey folks. This is a stability update which should fix a majority of the annoying crashes arising. There is still a 'consistency' bug with the save system which is going to need a *lot* of work, and I'm away next week due to... my... um... 25th Wedding Anniversary. Your support means a lot, but Kara means more - at least for next week ( :-) )- I hope you understand.

Thanks again for your stellar support and patience.
