While I agree with Jakes Hawkes - inasmuch as this is a post about the release of Nick's plugin to the OS community, the flames have no releveance here - nevertheless, let me say for the record, that I have been a long time customer of Nick Haskins. I have more than likely bought every plugin he's ever created and many of his themes. He is a solid coder and developer and his support and attention to his customers has always been superb. I hold both him and his work in great esteem. With that being said, I just tested Lasso and I absolutely LOVED it - so I purchased it as I will be using it and aesop story engine for a very big long form story project on a live production site.
