    	Hello, BRAHMS shifters.  Since the book keeping how many trigger
    we have for a certain setting is important, FV and I started the spread
    sheet program for shifters to fill in a last week or so.  However, this
    failed miserably because of a few reason I can think of.
    
    (A) Shifters are just too busy checking functionality of every detector
    during the shift.  However, I doubt this one considering how often we have
    beam up and running.
    
    (B) Shifters just do not know how to do a additions, subtraction and
    multiplication to get a number of triggers.  (Maybe, we should keep a
    slide ruler for old ones and a calculator for younger ones.  Or, if you
    prefer, we should have an abacus.)  Anyway, I hope this is not the reason.
    
    (C) We are just toooooo lazy.  This must be the reason!!! =)
    
    
    Anyway, since I gave up the spread sheet, I made a small web page - perl
    script to do the summation for lazy shifters. (Now, if we only could get
    Lazy Boy chair in the counting house.....)  The link is in the BRAHMS
    shift page.  
    
    	I did not test the page well, so please let me know if the program
    does not work.
