Hi Bob and Jim,

I am sorry but I missed the beginning of the net so I may have missed what 
you are referring to.

Currently Bob is taking checkins in mostly an orderly manner.

WE try to ask people to checkin from the area that they live in but that 
seems to go by the wayside..

In the grand scheme of things this is still a great cross section of AM from 
across the country.

I would be happy to entertain any suggestions.
