draft response to Hank...
note this response is based on a discussion w/ john and it seems to have
a somewhat different spin than that in frank;s proposed response...
i'm not sure how we should handle responses to tonko's add'l
questions (same message or another), but i'm also thinking frank's proposed
responses to b and c aren't exactly the information tonko was
looking for - so please comment on frank's proposed answers
to the tonko questions too... thanks.....

hello hank,
we're assuming that you mean 'how do we respond to *an
occasional* missed L2'....
what happens in general is simple. if we got a L0
but no L2, the system times-out (now after a delay of 100ms),
and then the event is simply flushed.... so, no problem if
this is an occasional occurrence - the system can handle this...
if you're talking about something that is to occur
often or always though, we would have/cause any problems,
but we'd also not be collecting any data either....
