Ok, so this is better than I imagined.  The clients have a slightly  
different
memory model from argus, and so I'll turn all the knobs this morning and
try to find a way to keep the memory way down.

So we have two problems, argus seems to find a packet in
washington.edu, that it doesn't like and in BC, Canada, we're running
out of memory.  Seems to all be related to North America, North West
continental plate.  Should we pursue a geologic explanation for all of
this?  Maybe I need a field trip to the great NorthWest Territories to
take some samples?

(well it was worth a try ;o)
