I am trying to get the Metar and weather.com blocks on the homepage 
working.  From bits and pieces from the lists, I have gotten what feels 
like it's close.  Can I get some pointers on finishing it off.

I have the Metar to the point that I can configure it, so I have the 
database built and horde is seeing it.  But, there's never any data.  
Just a label saying "Last Updated:" with no value.  I think I just need 
to get something to start retrieving data, but how/where?

For weather.com, I've registerd and edited the PEAR file w/ my account 
info.  When I add the block I can set Location, Units, and forecast 
days. But, the block doesn't appear at all on the home page.  I know I 
need to save the SDK files somewhere, but where should that be?  What 
else do I need to do?  Thanks for reading and for the great application.

Rob
