   Yes, there are 300 messages or so in there. I wonder if that will change   
   when someone posts something new in HOTDOGED.. We'll see.

   OK, it should be OK as long as your boss has a good handle on that.

   I don't see that, no.

   The app was last updated quite a while ago. It's possible changes to the   
   underlying OS has changed things also.

   Yes, I have that in case it's handy for someone but I haven't used it much   
   at all and not with hotdoged. I suppose I could give that a try.
