  File: comm.c
  Desc: This file implements the actual transmission portion
  of the "ok to power me down" message to the remote
  power cycling black box.

  It's been sepatated into a separate file so that
  it may be replaced by any other comm mechanism desired.

  (including none or non serial mode at all)
