Re: 20140623: IDD neartime/archive file counts low

Hi Tom,

Sure cc'ing doesn't hurt a bit -- we may not be able to help a lot but 
we can see what we can see.  In this case Matthew did cc us on at least 
some of his communication with you about the Antarctic problem but it 
looked like that had started in April/May.

This file count didn't seem to be a problem until this weekend but I 
suppose it could be related.


Thanks,

Rosie
