   Here's why this is so frustrating: this morning both invocations of
/etc/cron.daily/1pflogsumm ran with reports mailed to my INBOX. And, I
received the mail with the log file from adding 'set -x' to the top of the
script.

   Therefore, nothing to see here. It all worked. But, that's not to conclude
tomorrow's results will be the same.

   Ah, well. Guess I need to learn to live with it.
