20000602: Using PILs

Peter,

I use the PIL when it makes the pattern action easier due to different
wfo's issuing the product under different wmo id's (such as when stations
are transitioning from old headers to the new standardized headers).

The primary reason I added the PIL tag to the pqing ingest is that
in some cases, the WMO id id not unique. For instance,
with the NIDS products, SDUS53 KBOU has 7 different products
(VIL, BREF, VEL, etc), and the PIL is necessary to differentiate.

Another case, the climate summaries, CDUS43 KOAX issues:
CLILNK, CLIOMA, CLIOFK. Using the pil allows a finer handling.

The NWS has PIL to WMO tables:

http://www.nws.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/chg_show.pl?fn=XR-5tt-xref.txt

as well as a software program:
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/oso/oso1/oso15/formatconvtool.htm

Of course, there are no pils for international data.
