+1, that is definitely better.

I can send a new version with it if we decide to keep the script.

Mainly we are tying to decide to remove the script or keep with the changes in

There aren't still much comment on it, only comment by you in favor of removal, 
I haven't seen any comment to keep the script.

Added more folks for comment, also techboard comments are welcome.
