[EIDXA] 2012 Marathon

[Joe Hetrick]

Look at the abuse I get!  I'm trying to rig the thing!  *grin*

So, I tweaked it..and..maybe it's working properly.  Jerry, and anyone else using ODS's keep an eye on what gets posted and let me know if there are mistakes..  I had to do a bit of an ugly hack to make it work properly.

>>> 	Try not to work everything with 1 station, but try to network together and add to each others total.
