Thanks for the quick responses.  I clearly had a misunderstanding
previously that HOT data was separated from the main database.  I'm
delighted it's there (and the fact that it's timestamped is cool).

Pierre, you hit a good button with me.  I am fairly proficient both with
query languages and XML :)  Think that'll get what I need.

Russell, my sister unit is the Defense Coordinating Element here, so I'm
definitely interested overall.  There are some nuances, though, so I'm
going to focus on this first and get back to you.  One of the really neat
things about this list is the great variety of backgrounds.

If there's anyone else that can advise on information handy to track in an
austere environment I appreciate any other input as well.

Thanks!

Dion
