   One more note on this subject:   
     I discovered to mount the flash drive I had to have "root" or superuser   
   permissions.  This also made the files owned by root and any changes had   
   to be done by "root."   
     Remember, I wanted to work on the files on this flash drive and end up   
   on "saving" with a local time stamp.   
     As such, I discovered extra option that needed to be added to the line   
   command to accomplish my goal, yet keep modification and ownership with   
   me as user.  Here is the full command line entry:   
      
   sudo mount -t vfat -o uid=paul,gid=users,time_offset=-480 /dev/sdc1 /mnt   
      
   Adding the "uid" and "gid" options solved these ownership issues.   
      
   Thanks for all the help
