 :I've had houseguests for several days ... still getting through my e-mail.  There are multiple factors on G&S.;  First, it wasn't nominated by its main contributor (you), and some reviewers hold back on such cases, particularly if it's not clear the main contributor considers the article ready.  The nomination might have been more effective if it had been your nomination.  Second, there are some factors on the FAC talk page that may be leading to intimidation of reviewers right now, with people reluctant to comment.  Third, FAC in general lately has been bogged down by the number of nominations; it takes longer to get responses.  Be patient, but it would be good to know if *you* think the article is comprehensive and ready—I've never been a G&S; fan, so I don't feel I can comment on 1b comprehensive, but the article is structurally sound now.  Will catch up on e-mail as soon as I'm able.   "
