Hi Herbie,

As usual, you've addressed the core issue. Instead of us each having  
to download the archives to our own systems, why can we not have them  
posted to the two Staz sites, one in English, the other in French,  
with Quixample searches possible at both locations? That way we don't  
need to have updates of anything. Alain can update his stuff, Larry  
can update his/ours and we can all search as needed without  
encumbering our own systems.
