I sure hope not!  I'm really trying to get this all set up to do minut=0D
changes on the fly.  I need an eeprom to be able to do that.  Soon enough=

here I'll have it so I just am changing a small part of the whole program=

instead of the whole thing.  I want to be able to make changes to the fue=

another.=0D
