Hi, Max et al.:


 ��� � With SSH established:


git clone git using github.com:JamesRamsay5/fda.git


 ��� � Worked.


 ����� I had tried something like "git clone 
git using github.com:JamesRamsay5/fda.git" before, but I either did not have 
that exact syntax or I tried that before I had SSH.


 ����� Thanks again,
 ����� Spencer Graves
