Hello Dave!

Dear David "The GOD" Hamilton,

Foxy also caught heck when she was hatching her list into the BACKBONE FDN, but 
you knew this. In that case she didnt know because her predecessor had been 
doing so, but DALE does know. (Dale factors in as he is the hatcher of the last 
2 ERNROUTE files)

You gave me nothing but grief because I hatched NB into the BACKBONE FDN, 
changing standards today David?

A new FDN can be created in a heartbeat. For example, I was hatching the weekly 
statistics file for my mail hub into BACKBONE FDN, instead I got with the 
Filegate head and within minutes I had a new FDN explicitly meant for HUB stat 
files. Dale or Bobby can request a FDN all for the purposes of this alternate 
list, all they have to do is ask and poof, that is if they possess the cajones 
to "just ask".
