To further this, I didn't even know it was an issue. If it was only half 
an hour and it needed to be done, why wasn't it put out there?

Thanks goes to Bruce for fixing it but I didn't know it was an issue, I 
have 5 C developers, if any of them could have done it -- then some 
communication is needed and I would have allocated someone to it.

I am sure that is the case with others as well.

I am not saying it is anyone's responsibility to speak up, but I can say 
had I known some help was needed (especially something so trivial) I 
would have gladly donated some time.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
