20041007: Upstream datafeed source request

Hi Gary,

I thought your name sounded familiar..I worked with Jeff at AFIT quite a
bit setting up his system.

That all sounds great, except NLDN...we have to get that point to point
via SUNY-Albany..I can/will initiate that dialog.. They are generally very
responsive.

I have an "allow" for the other feeds you requested for:

tornado.unco.edu

on

our  machine:

thelma.ucar.edu


You should be all set, and I will notify you when and where to point your
NLDN request in the near future..hopefully this afternoon :)


Please let us/me know if any issues arise with the data ingest.


Cheers,

Jeff
