Dan,

Thanks for the links. I'm not really sure how to read those listings. 
It's good to know where to find them though. That long vulnerability 
list is a bit scary.

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new messages very quickly.)
