Hi Barry,

I worked from home yesterday, and when I do that the day never seems to
end :-)

>(formerly SLS, now WOU).

OK.

>Please let us know if that's not what you're finding.

I put up a couple of plots from WWDISP after making the change I sent
you yesterday.  Please take a look and let me know what your opinions
are:

Sounds good.

>Thanks again,

No worries.
