Ryan,

ugh.... actually the i was thinking the problem only happened when the 23
hour report came in on the same day, not the nextday. so you are correct
to put the 23 hour processing ahead of the day checking of both same day
and nextday. Thanks for checking this out. real time data processing does
have some tricky caveats.  i made a new distribution with the fix but it
seems you already have it.
