One additional note that I didn't point out b/c I was watching taped
west wing episodes.

6.2?!?!?!?!?! It's nearly 3 yrs old!!!!

These people need to upgrade, a lot.

Get them to 7.0, then explain 7.1 is just a hop away and since they are
already on 7.1, why not 7.2 and well, pish-posh, 7.2 is SOOO close to
7.3 why not that?

Who are these people who need to preserve 6.2?
