First of all, I completely agree with you. People should stop defending Dave. He has done nothing in the whole time the hacks have been "down", and not even posted a message to tell people if he's working on a new hack. Even though you have a good point, you don't need to insult him. He's done more for m.p.g.h. CA hacks than virtually anyone else, and even though he's taking a vacation at a very inconvenient time, he's entitled to his vacation, and nobody could say he hasn't earned it. I for one prefer to play with hacks, but its not a crippling weakness to play without them, I'm pretty good legit as well.
