Jeremy,

Thanks for keeping us up to date with these. There is a lot of 
interesting science coming out of Rosetta now.

These two papers contain good descriptions of the dynamical evolution of 
Scattered Disk comets such as 67P and make some strong arguments that 
67P is a relatively young object, at least in its current configuration.

Nick.
