Wouldn't you know!?  :-)

OK.  Do you have any idea what sort of network bandwidth they
have?

I guess that I heard wrong/remembered hearing wrong.  I did not know
that Jim had retired.  Lucky you that you get to do two (or likely
more) jobs now :-O

re:
> How long before your retirement?

I feel that it is coming up, but I don't have any specific date
for it yet.  Given that I turned 70 in August (yikes!), it will
likely be sooner than later.  If we were not in this pandemic, it
might have already happened by now...

Cheers,

Tom
