+CLI Meter
+====================================================================
+Takes a reading of the light using the meter attached via to the
+intended Raspberry PI. The reading is the sent to a server where the
+reading is stored. The intended use for this script is to be run via
+the command-line without the need for a G.U.I. This should be the
+version used when the "Return to Ritherdon" project is live.
