[Baypiggies] scientific notation: string to int

[Bryce Verdier]

I figured it out & I'll fess up to it, it was a total ID-10-T error on 
my part.

first list of the file was:

Vol UUID, Vol Name, Commercial Timestamp, Commercial Max Space Used, Commercial Bytes Written, Commercial Bytes Read, Zetta Timestamp, Zetta Max Space Used, Zetta Bytes Written, Zetta Bytes Read, Date: Dec  2 2010


I feel so sheepish... oh well, I doubt I'll make this mistake again.

Bryce
