2) Someone really should lookup the word "penultimate" in a dictionary to see that 'concludes' is not used correctly here

We resume our regularly scheduled topic...

Thanks to 'Lynx' for the 75% code.

Thanks for pointing that out! I thought I was going crazy! I Googled for the upcoming release and everywhere said it's the conclusion so I went looking for the previous one.
It never occured to me that a publisher wouldn't know what 'penultimate' means!

And yeah, so far I'm scoring sub-50% codes :-(
