**Cage**: Many, many thanks for making me aware of the neck stretch problem. It must have crept in when I moved the centers for the neck and head the last time and apparently forgot to adjust the smooth scale settings.

Here's what it looks like when I repair the settings. It's too late now to put the fix in the 123 version, but I could make it available as a pose, if anyone's interested.
