My second problem...definitely the more thought out. I hope this is fairly complete, I spent a while on it--but if it isn't, please comment and I'll respond!
Many thanks to Field Mouse, who gave me a lot of pointers on the problem's flaws while leaving the problem up on the site. I hope I was able to properly fix it (being a newb, I always have to worry about that). Also, thanks to kaf for catching one of my "I'll make the opposing side really dumb" mistakes.

There's distant danger of a ko fight starting here, but even a ko threat can 't do much in that open space...and if black fills, who cares?RIGHT])
