Hi Luis,

Happy New Year to you also! It is hard to believe that over three months
have gone by since you were in Boulder. How can we make time run slower!?

This is very strange indeed since the line simply echos an instruction
to the shell, and all of the text to be written is sorrounded by shifted
quotes. The good news is that everything after this point in mcinstall
is simply commentary. You can safely proceed to the next step in building
the distribution:
<as 'mcidas'>
./mcinstall <- you are here
cd ~mcidas/mcidas2004/src
make
-- or --
make VENDOR=-g77
-- or --
make all
-- or --
make all VENDOR=-g77

I do not know what to tell you about the error you are seeing other than
to say that it is not important and will not keep you from proceeding with
the build. Since we no longer have a RedHat 9 system here at Unidata, I
will be unable to look further into the error (unless you give me the
'mcidas' login on your machine); sorry.

I will relay your greeting.
On a different subject: have you had an opportunity to talk to folks
at UPRM about the possibility of assuming a more prominent role in
real time data distribution in the Caribbean? I am still quite eager
to see UPRM play this leading and important role.
Cheers,
Tom

Beleive it or not there is a stupid guy in Puerto Rico saying that a huge
Tsunami will take place soon that will rotate the earth axes 180 degrees
(I'm still laughing!!); maybe this will slow the rotation of the planet: ja
ja ja!!!

I laready talked to some of them, but the guy that is running the climate
Center (or use to be running) is in DC working wfor NSF an will return on
August. Any way I'll continue with the installation of Mcidas as a
distribution Center, I know they will agree (hope that). I did not
configured Mcidas like that because it is running on a temporary computer,
but as soon as I move everything to our new computer I'll continue with the
project as we discussed in Boulder.
By the way, this command is sill not working:
wxtlist.k APRO=SWR ASTN=PR|grep -v wxtlist.k
Thank you Tom
