That sounds like a really good idea. Also: what is the status of the
tape drive we had been using on hodge? There have been many cases
lately of hodge's tape drive being needed but already in use, so if
the options are putting that drive on, e.g., charon, or in a box under
someone's desk in e40, I think charon would be the preferred choice.
