The technical issues are worked out.  We appreciate your patience.  Here are the Thursday numbers.

NETWORK FINALS:  The national NFL PRESEASON game on NBC adjusted up 0.2 to 1.8.  Changes elsewhere were likely due to local NFL preemptions.  On CBS, the LIFE IN PIECES rerun lost 0.1, and the CODE BLACK rerun went down 0.2.  On FOX, each of the ROSEWOOD and BONES reruns dropped 0.3.
