whoo boy ok this is good because yeah I have a LOT of questions.. lets see how
many times I can pop the why stack on this

Why did you decide to develop a framework for watir?

As a developer, Why would I want to use the WatirCraft framework?
As a tester/QA professional, Why would I want to use the WatirCraft framework?

For both the above, What major functionality does it add that I don't get
already with tools like Watir, Cucumber, and Rspec used on their own.

Tell me more about using Page files:
what's the major benefit? (cleaner code? easier code?)
what are drawbacks or limitations
What's the basic use pattern for them?
Where can't I use them, what can't I do with them?

Does the framework provide any facility for things like a fancy report format
that I can use to report the test status and impress my boss and other managers?

When used to run a suite of tests (for something like say regression testing) is
there a way to report what tests were blocked or could not be run?
