Nelson,

that's a table missing error, did you guys make a new table? the old table
numbers were 58 42 2.  last time you sent me the table entries, there was
two additional tables w/o numbers,  i think they were called table_2_A and
table_2_B.   if you get me the table info, i'll create the table for you

we had to change the ftp stuff, there's no more uploading.  if you can
create a small file with only 1 record that could be emailed to me.
