If you're referring to the freezing of the clouds in the loop,
that's likely the result of goes9 being replaced by mtsat. I'm
guessing the machine that generates the loops doesn't know of
the change yet.

Thanks Scott. I had been told it was unlikely to have any correlation
from a previous correspondance with the website holders. It all just
seemed one hell of a coincidence.

What really threw me was that I had been looking at it earlier in the
week looking to see if it would actually occur but looking at cloud
scapes over the N Atlantic. I was miffed that I suddenly appeared and
was back dated.

Oh well, back to the drawing board. Good job I like egg. Hell of a
thing to get out of a beard though.
