Re: [AGA-mcm] Fwd: Re: What's cookin in Indiana

Hey, it's not a matter of the database, it's a matter of the front end.
What's going on is that about a week ago I upgraded pulcher (aka the krib, 
aka aquatic-gardeners.org, etc) to a new version of the OS, and 
coincidentally also needed to update the web front-end for the database (a 
program called "DaDaBiK") for the first time in like 2+ years.

Theoretically, I CAN produce a report showing the distribution of member 
months.  Probably will too, just to be obstinate.
