Hello gents,

I forget what all we were including in these data dumps. Also, I have (3) 2010 

Queenstake roaster tests not in the dbase that have not been reviewed. If you like I can 

send the stack test report summary pages. We had spoke earlier about sending PDFs, 

but to be frank, that's going to be a bit of work to cull those out of the files--so unless 

you are sure that you need those I'll stand by and wait for your word until I ship those.
