YEp, I watched it run first couple weeks, I was pretty sure
it would operate alright during the rollover, but now I feel safe letting it
run when I'm not here to attend it .  Had to fix a couple minor errors the
first week it ran, but
nothing fatal, I'm rather proud of myself.  That means I'll
break something really good next time i get to fiddling i
guess .

YOu know I was really surprised, as I had a house full of
stepdaughter and her boyfriend and their zoo going on at the time, which was
one reason I was finding something to do
that would keep them away from me.  If I was doing a lot of
radio they'd be in here doing the "hey wow cool ... " thing, but programming,
they'd leave me alone, she's mouse potato
gui only, and he's not literate enough to even handle that
one, so I figured I'd leave them with their version of Jerry Springer dealing
with her mother in the other room and bury
myself in a programming project.

Regards,
           Richard
