BMI NEWS DELIVERY:
Anyone else having a problem with =timely= delivery of the
news from BMI? I mean, on numbers days I'm getting reports
anywhere from 15 minutes to well over an hour =after=
they're release. Today, for example, GDP was over 1/2 hour
late. The other day, Durable Goods arrived over 1 1/2 hours
after it was released.

I called BMI and was informed that the problem was the
markets were "busy" and their policy is quotes get priority.
That's fine =except= I don't think their news was ever as
far behind as it's been over the last 6 months or so. In
fact, I recall a time in the not-too-distant past where the
numbers would appear within a minute or two after release. 


SIGNAL ONLINE:
Is anyone using (or planning to use) this service? Is there
method to =automatically= re-establish a connection
following a disconnect? Based upon what I've read here, it
appears that Signal OnLine is on a par with other delivery
methods, =but= I'd hate to come back from lunch or the
bathroom and discover that the connection to my ISP was
dropped.

Best regards,
Jim
