+This is a patch update that:
+
+- Handles a web service being down in testing using `testthat::skip_on_cran()`
+- Handles a web service being down in vignettes by converting most vignettes to
+  articles and leaving just one `Start Here` vignette
+- Due to the lapse in government funding in federal agencies in the US, 
+  the web service StreamCatTools is built around may be down for some time
+- Because of the lapse in government funding in federal agencies in the US, I
