Tonight, I discovered a major hitch in my archive server.
It seems I had permissions set improperly for one of the
log files.  This caused the server to fail after processing
the first request.  All requests after the first were
discarded.

I have fixed this problem.

Sooooo....  if you've been waiting for files and they have
never shown up, please try again.  From the date of the last
write to the log file, it seems that this behavior has been
going on since SEPTEMER 2ND!

The reason I didn't notice it was that one request per batch
would be processed each day.  I suspected something was up
when I saw many multiples of requests show up after I did the
monthly posting, but only one file was served properly.

Sorry for any inconvenience...
