Nice set up there, I am jealous of all the nice resources you have. Was really good to compare notes. Too much talking and not enough splitting and loading, but that's always how it goes with visitors.
Nice run today here, still going at 9pm. I'll shut down everything at 10pm. Tomorrow will be a long day I think...
Cheers!
John
