Hello Donald and all:

Did you happen to take the check data feature for a spin after your pandora 
experience? if so, what did you get? forgive me if this sounds obvious to you. 

What I am really asking is were you able to confirm a result other than by 
using data man.

Take good care and I wish you enough.
