I've exchanged email with Bill, our contact at the storage site; they'd
like to see it moved to a good home but don't have an immediate
deadline, so I suggested late January (23rd) as the move date. I'm out
of the area 12/20 - 1/9. He didn't see a need to subscribe to our list
since his interest in the SEM is just to see it go to a good home.
The SEM is estimated to consume 500W while active, so we'll probably
want to dedicate at least part of a circuit to it. Jim, let's talk
about it the next time we're both at 2169.
