You may have a cached copy of their web page in your memory. In the last day,
they've put up this notice:

     Our "data pipeline" is not flowing at top speed, so we're sending out
     the same work units (mostly recorded Jan 7 and Jan 8) repeatedly.

My problem is that *I* was paying too much attention to the processing -- and
there were now five PCs here that were processing the data when most of them
would have normally been turned off in the evenings.
