hi all (but really Jeanne),

  I've got some cycles/sexskins issues that I need some help with.

1) We're getting an error that says "sexskins dates overlap with following 
cycles mdate."  Did we get rid of this rule?  I think we should consider 
doing so if not.  What seems to be happening is that the sexskins table 
does not differentiate between a sexskin score that is for a turgesence 
versus a deturgesence.  So, in some cases, a score of 2 or 3 is really a d2 
or d3, but the computer seems to want those to go with the next cid (which 
they shouldn't since they are really the tail end -no pun intended - of a 
cycle).

2) Can anyone find me some data for Alto's in late 1976 and in 1977??  My 
originals seem to stop in July 1976 and don't pick up again until 1980. 
It's making the checking of some cycles in late 1976 and in 1977 rather 
difficult.

3) we are getting a lot of errors from the sexskins table.  it makes me 
sad.

Jeanne - if we need to talk about this, let me know.

thanks,
steph
