The ssh encryption lag over the wire doesn't seem to be noticeable, gcode 
files are rarely over 300k in size if machine generated, while what I 
write, because I use loop structures everyplace I can, is rarely over 
300 lines, and one routine I wrote to sharpen carbide toothed table saw 
blades, takes about a day and a half to run, is actually less than 50 
lines. Finding a bug in machine generated code is nigh impossible, but a 
bug in my own code, because its probably in a subroutine, and repeated 
possibly 100's of times, is pretty easily found and fixed.

If the mount has not been done, amanda doesn't complain, and it skips 
that directory like the good little girl she usually is. Here on this 
machine its 777. And while I am first user=1000 as gene here, there I'm 
first user=1000 as pi. tar is 1.27.1 on both.  Same pw on both even. One 
of those things that if I scratched my head over it, the hair would be 
thinner than it already is at 82yo. :)
