Robb,
Thanks for the info! I have to take much of the responsibility here...
I think the update notices were missed by me. I have been stretched
extremely thin by long-running family illness and the resignation of
the SRCC's previous System Administrator back in January. The good
news is, the SRCC was able, in early July, to hire Bob Leche. He's an
excellent addition to the team there, bringing lots of experience as
well as eagerly learning much via the "trial-by-fire" method! :)
I will review my old Email for update notices and will work with Bob
to get those in place. There's probably much cartching-up to do...

Kind regards,
Ric
