Julie - Good points and question about the southern die off of Siskins. I do not know the answer to your question, but I bet the die off of Siskins to our south, happening first, just might indicate that warmer weather there could possibly be the culprit?

Unix will never die! They said it was going to die in the 80's but it's still going strong in some form or another, or imitated, embedded, pervasive, a survivor. What's more the ones you think are deceased are still being used out there by small and large groups of people who just won't let it die, they'll have to prise it out of their cold dead hands.
