Here is the very paragraph you are referring to:

A scant two weeks after our meeting, I received a telephone call from an estate lawyer who had handled matters involving my mother and father. He informed me that two safety deposit boxes belonging to Frank Herbert had turned up in a suburb of Seattle, boxes that none of us knew existed. I made an appointment to meet with the bank authorities, and in an increasing air of excitement the safety deposit boxes were opened. Inside were papers and old-style floppy computer disks that included comprehensive notes for an unpublished "DUNE 7" -- the long-awaited sequel to CHAPTERHOUSE: DUNE! Now Kevin and I knew for certain where Frank Herbert had been headed, and we could weave the events of our prequels into a future grand finale for the series.

Comprehensive notes man... there is NOTHING about actual Chapters or pages of chapters or anything like that.

The article says that Brian and his Dad had talked about it and they were trying to connect the threads by rereading all the original books and divining where Frank was going. Then they found the NOTES. ANd that's what it was NOTES. And all that did was confirm where Frank was headed.

I stand by everything I have said. Damn. And here I was trying to defend you.
