+===== rsync Windoze Files =====
+You need to expand the time stamp difference for Windoze to not re-copy everything;
+<code>
+# always have vP for verbose and progress
+rsync --modify-window=5 -vPrltD NORMAL THING
+# NO LUCK for me like this, but adding this does only check file size
+rsync --size-only -vaP FROM/ TO/
+# try this
+rsync --size-only -vPrltD # OR remove -t
+# doing this on windows backup drive:
+rsync --size-only -vPrlD

+=== Files in Order ===
+Sometimes I have noticed files do not happen in order when doing command line things.  Using **xargs** and **sort** allows us to sort the input files so that the order is correct.
