you must be sending that message because you see what I have been running
since 10am... i decided to be a bit bold and tried to delete a bunch of
years again, given that i had had such good luck after changing the entry
date... anyway, i have other stuff to do so I thought I wqould just let it
run.. but am thinking i will abort if it isn't done by lunch :-P
