Hi Sher,

I apologize for not getting back to you before now...  I was in Burkina
Faso (Africa) when you sent your note, and am just now getting back into
the swing of things back here in Boulder (after finishing my taxes today).

Chiz would know the most about VGF files; I don't think that he
is writing their contents to netCDFs.

Well, it is a bit of I have no idea of how to convert VGFs to netCDFs,
but that should not be suprising :-)

Thanks!

Cheers,

Tom
