THat was my thought initially right after we signed Hopkins. I figured it would take at least 6 weeks for DHop to absorb enough of the playbook and get comfortable enough with all the alert/can stuff to be out there for most of the subpackages. But I also thought we'd see a gradual decline in JWat's snaps as Hopkins became more acclimated, but we haven't really seen that yet.

It's a little puzzling/frustrating to me. But, I guess we'll just have to see if it continues over the next 4 weeks or so.
