Brian,

Are you launching Garp from the "ntl" launching bar?
Running ntl ensures that you have a common color table for all gempak
programs- including garp - to access. If you are just running garp
from the command line, then you will likely have trouble launching
a second session since it will try to obtain a separate color map.
With the shared color map, you should be able to launch several garp sessions.

The NIDS data is handled between universities directly with WSI.
Unidata negotiated the educational pricing, but the data is sent
directly from WSI to you and they handle all contract and billing.
