Thanks Ward.  For 2 of my networks, FIDO and Metronet, I have to poll to get
updates. I'm still kind of getting up to speed on all this again, but I think
because I'm a point on FIDO, I have to poll to get messages (maybe not, maybe
it's me). For Metronet, I was asked to poll.  For MicroNet, it works like you
described.

Thanks for feedback, guys!
