[Fourlanders] Writelog version10.42b broken

[Jim Worsham]

I have talked to Bob and we will upgrade all of our laptops to 10.42c.  One
other thing.  There are three tower trailers at Bob's place and we have only
two tow vehicles.  Someone (neal?) is supposed to come and get the third
tower trailer.  Just a reminder. The contest grows closer.
