  Hi Jo. Hmm, if you run it from Thing, you're GEM so thats root, right?
  Thats the only way that I run it...using your excellant "Connexion".
  
  Speaking of Connexion, can I make a request? You know the dialog that
  blows up when you lose connection, and it asks you if you want to
  reconnect? Can you add some kind of flag so that you can tell it to
  ask or go ahead and auto-reconnect? Thanks! ;-)
