Good call, George. I have offered Edgeos' services at least three times 
over the past couple of years for exactly this. We can offer the 
assessments to be scheduled (as well as on-demand) and happen fully 
automated. Unfortunately, the powers-that-be for PLUG have never taken me 
up on this offer. Nonetheless, the offer does still stand.
