Brian,

Weird!

Right, I was just hoping that someone had already done this.  I guess that
I am just being lazy.

OK, I understand.

I understand.  Any help would be appreciated.

I will be there as well.  We should definitely get together and chat.

I will be making a new addendum for my 7.8 release right after returning
from Madison.  I have to roll in changes in 55 routines that allow one
to _finally_ build McIDAS using the gcc/g77 combo.  I figured that
this would be a good time to also make a bunch of new enhancements
available to the Unidata community.
