[GeoStL] Milestones

-
Sorry for the delay in getting the milestones updated on the home page. I've 
added Seporp1, Myotis, Strider, happycycler, and cacheRcheck. If I've missed 
anyone or have some wrong dates or numbers, just let me know. 
As Brawny Bear indicated, I was taking a break. Actually it was a little more 
than that. Last Thursday after a day of caching in St. Chuck, I got severe 
stomach cramps, 104 fever, throwing up, and shakes so bad I couldn't use the 
mouse or dial the phone. My Dr. sent me to the ER at St. Lukes. They diagnosed 
it as Pancreatitis, and after an ultrasound on Friday, it was determined that 
my gall bladder is bad and a lodged gall stone blocked the duct and caused the 
infection of the duct and the pancreas. (Gall bladder to come out next Tue AM). 
Then they found a major problem after doing a blood culture. The area where the 
gall stone was lodged, and now passed, caused the same virus that's contained 
in E coli to grow. That was keeping my temperature at 100-102 and they wouldn't 
let me come home until it was normal for 24 hrs. After 3 days of antibiotic 
IV's, the fever broke late Sunday night, and they let me come home today.  The 
funeral is cancelled for now and I'm actually looking forward to next Tue. so I 
won't have to go through this again! :-)

PS-It's rough getting old!
