I wanted to apologize to everyone who was/is waiting for work from me. Suffered a complete hard drive failure and had to wait to order a new hard drive and then restore what I could from it. I'm back up now, but I'm afraid those workunits are gone forever.

The work units haven't "gone for ever", only the copies sent to you as tasks have gone. The work units will be copied again and sent on to someone else.

Indeed, but they're gone for me. Anyone waiting for me will have to wait longer.
