Ethan, et. al.,

We (Unidata) checked our motherlode disk usage after seeing the message
from Mark and you.  We find that we are using about what we have been
using for quite some time (i.e., we find no new or renegage disk usage
on our part).

We then checked the /data/gds directory and see that about 125+ GB is
being used by a Jennifer Admas:

/data/gds% ls -alt

/data/gds% grep jennifer /etc/passwd
jennifer:x:2588:1000:Jennifer Adams,2588,UNIV:/home/jennifer:/bin/csh

Since I don't know Jennifer, I can't comment on who she is or what the
space is being used for.  Any ideas on your part?
