Hi SJ,

re:

If only that were true... :-)

Will you be installing this?

re:
> WIll reboot the machine now as I assume you are finally asleep :)

I see that you rebooted your machine.  While logged in this morning,
I saw that the load average was nice and low ( <= 1.5 ); nice!

Please let me know if/when you install a 64-bit version of the netCDF
and where it can be found.  I will then re-login and finish a build of
the ldm-mcidas-2012 package and make the binary distribution of the
decoders available to the Unidata community.
