Pshaw!  That's the standard technique in NEP-MRT CCP!!!  Figure out 
which user was logged in, then go and get their indicators from an 
array.  And of course if they went over 99 indicators, you simply used 
more blocks.

WHOO HOO!

Yeah, that's the kind of programming that required lots of coffee......
