Hello, All.

Well, I've cleaned up the script I refer to below, and I'm wondering if enough
people are interested that I should post it, or should I send it to Lisa?

Please mail me directly if you're interested.  If I get lots of queries, I'll
post, otherwise I'll send information directly to the interested parties.

Thanks.

Allen S. Rout
NERDC ADSM type.
