    1+1=1

    No, 1+1=1 isn't some new kind of math. It means that while I was writing chapters 6 and 7, I decided to combine them into one chapter instead. Chapter 6 was too short, and since 6 flowed into 7, it seemed like the logical thing to do. Of course, for purposes of counting my progress, I still plan to consider them as two chapters, so I'm done with seven chapters, and I'm still on schedule!
