PowerHouse Web

[Deskin, Bob]

All of the PowerHouse Web components are behind the Web Server. The Web
Server is not a PowerHouse piece. It is whichever Web Server you want
and there are lots of them out there. The security and encryption
processing goes on between the Web Browser and the Web Server, through
whatever firewall there is. There isn't room here to go over firewalls.
I expect that there'll be more of this in the White Paper.
