There was other isses that seemed to be related to what you are seeing now, 
that is opening a stack to launch LC cause some kind of timing issue. Instead 
of LC waiting until all the plugins and whatnot were loaded before opening the 
stack, it seemed like LC was trying to run the stack scripts before it was 
ready. I thought this had been dealt with. I can only think that it may be 
possible to check some condition to see if LC was fully loaded before 
proceeding would be a good workaround. Have you tried to see if the revTools 
stack was open before proceeding and recalling the script in a few seconds if 
not?
