NOTE: This Q&A contains mild spoilers for TREATY and MOON.
I e-mailed Mr. W asking about some of the things that still need answered, as well as what's happening with Wallabee Beatles (the stupidity curse dealt to him). While most didn't give clear answers, this e-mail was funny as hell, Mr. W being Mr. W. My comments are in red.

Q: Got a new round of Q & A. Are you rrready?
A: see, technically THIS is question 1, but down below you've got it labeled as 'Q1' which i assume is short for 'question 1'... which can be totally confusing. but since i'm a veteran of this question answering thing- i figured it out. some of these newer show creators would short-circuit and have to go into therapy for weeks. but not me. so in answer to your TRUE first question... yes, i'm ready. but only with one 'r'.
Q1. For four years in the knd forum I've used the name
"Numbuh Infinity" -- I never thought I'd see the name
on the actual show! It feels weird speaking in the
third person. Do you feel the same way when somebody
says "Mr. Warburton" when they mean Patrick Warburton?
Are you two related at all?
A: hey wait... now we've got a Q1a and Q1b! but it's not REALLY Q1 because the PREVIOUS question was REALLY question 1. wait... or was it question 2? oh, man... even i, master question answerer am starting to get a tad confus-
NO! i can do this...
in answer to your first, second part of your first question that was really question 2... (gulp...) um...
no, i'm not related to patrick warburton? i think...
and yeah, numbuh infinity picked that numbuh becuase of the infinite patience you must have as a diplomat.
wait, was that the question? uuuuuh....
NEXT!
Q2. How come the UK gets new episodes earlier than in
the 'States, even though the show was made in the US?
A: yeah, it's a bit frustrating, isn't it?
[comment: Yeah, I mean... it doesn't make sense to me.]
Q3. I've seen most of the Season Six episodes now, and
we still don't know how the incident between Nigel,
Abby, and the Delightful Children that caused Nigel's
baldness occurred. Will we ever find out? Maybe in
Operation: INTERVIEWS?
A: so wait wait wait! there are TWO QUESTIONS here in question 3 just like in question 2 that was really question 3!, which at this point is really question 7! or is it 9? aw man... this is getting messy...
well, in answer to your question (questions?) um... well... maybe? and maybe. i think.
Q4. What about the origin of the Kids Next Door?
A: that would take up more than 6 more seasons. it's a loooooong story.
(phew... just one question there) [Comment: Nuts!]
Q5. Operation: THEORY gave way more questions than
answers. The whole thing with Chad, the so-called
"Splinter Cell" not being what it seems, Nigel being
"chosen" for some purpose... Will Operation:
INTERVIEWS give some answers?
A: operation: THEORY!? wait...i haven't seen that one yet! how can i answer a question about a show i didn't see! now, i'm in trouble... were you sent by the splinter cell to test me? huh? were you?!? huh huh? [comment: Gadblasted! No, he did not change the word, I actually spelled the episode wrong!!]
Q6. Will Nigel and Lizzie ever make-up and get back
together? (My only romance-related question.)
A: oh, i hope so. lizzie rocks (as long as you're wearing ear plugs). [comment: This may give 1/Lizzie fans some hope... hopefully.]
Q7. This is going to be a long one,
oh noooooooooo...
which is why I saved it for last. Now this is something that bothers
me, and I'm sure you've gotten e-mails about this
before, but what is up with Wallabee Beatles?
well, the obvious answer is-
In the first season while he wasn't the most intelligent of
Sector V, he had SOME brains,
wait... i didn't get to answer yet-
and even had some good ideas -- He knew Sector V needed a Leader in Nigel's
absence in CANNON, for example. He also knew their
mission in PIANO would take way too long the way they
were doing, so he suggested a way to do it much faster
(this resulted in him getting hurt, but mission
accomplished).
wait wait wa-
But ever since Season 2, he started getting slowly
dumber or dumber (or seemed that way compared to
everyone else). He started becoming really clueless or
oblivious to what's going on, and can't figure out
certain simple things. It seemed to get worse ever
since that bus episode with the cowboy-like gang (I
forget the name of the episode, sorry) with his
"unique" spelling to impress the teacher. By late
series, the show cast him as TOO dumb/stupid, if you
ask me. And he's been made of fool of several times,
most recently in Operation: MOON in front of the
entire KND. Again.
I realize a lot of this is probably for cartoon humor,
but I think things went a little too far with what's
done to him. Why is Wally the way he is now?
A: uh...uuuuuuuuuh... the um... anzwer to qustion number 165, part b, secion 17, article 97.3 is... guacamole? please tell me it's guacamole! waht was the queestion again? PLEASE! pleeeeease... uuuuuh...
[comment: The entire "answer" = lol.]
Q8. Did your head spin at that long, long question?
A: er... no. not at all. why do you ask?

So we didn't exactly get all the answers we want (doesn't want to spoil us, I'd bet), but it sure was worth a read. ;D
EDIT: "vbots" is part of my e-mail name.
EDIT 2: I just realized Q7 can look confusing; this is because I copied/pasted it from my e-mail and Mr. Warburton's answers were in red. I editted it so his reply is in yellow.
I e-mailed Mr. W asking about some of the things that still need answered, as well as what's happening with Wallabee Beatles (the stupidity curse dealt to him). While most didn't give clear answers, this e-mail was funny as hell, Mr. W being Mr. W. My comments are in red.

But you never know. He did that to me a couple of times. It might be a trick. XD
