I don't think having Gregg actually come down will be useful or necessary at this point; the key thing is that I have a bit more time to rework some things, finish the other chapters. Probably Gregg and I will need to do one more phone convo so I can make sure of a few things, run some other things by him, and get a few more details from which I can extrapolate. Gregg, do you want to plan to talk on Sunday during your drive?

Gregg, I need you to write a politic reply to Julia's email (or rather, to MY reply, for all to see) that conveys your full engagement (no mention of clients etc) and spins a web (true or otherwise) of reassurance to Julia that you guys are in sync and working hard and together and... It should come from you, since (and this is part of your message too) Barrett's got his blinders on, working like a mofo.

You need to do that tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest--you've already left my bare ass hanging out exposed for too long, and that's already sent a message to Julia. I need you to send a corrective, a.s.a.p.

Meanwhile--obviously--we're way behind the 8-ball here. No point in saying how far behind, I know it ain't easy. But give me an update, OK?

And then: Barrett, should Gregg come down for another visit, to crash this thing through?
