I just turned in my 4th block this morning.  It took it but wouldn't give me
my 5th.  It said - Getting Data - Connecting to Server.  It still won't
connect this evening.  In the bug report area they say the server is
overloaded, to keep trying.  It didn't give me credit for the 4th on my
application but they have it when I do an email request.  Wait a minute, I
just received my 5th block.  ET awaits!  Later!
