Assuming that address@hidden is accepting your mail, it seems
like there might be a problem with the software at unidata which tabulates
the stats, at least for some sites.  (However, Brockport is not among
them, so I had always assumed the sites listed as 'unknown' just weren't
sending back stats to unidata.)  The fact that the MCIDAS topology listed
there has been severely truncated (most of the sites, including ours
and our feed Cornell, don't show up at all, not even as 'unknown') for
several months would seem to point in the same direction.
