Re-adding my section as it was not finished, it was of course not useful yet. I have removed more of those with good news.

81.179.199.253: From my reading of the original intent, this seems to be more correct... Though the adding of the Good News/Bad News variations by the OE makes me doubt that, so embedding this info. Removing the Expanded section, as not really useful as it was written.
