Thank you very much Greg.

I need to scrape content from a particular website.  I would like to hire someone to assist me to write a script that will scrape this content from the web and store it in a file. I would prefer to use a Ruby script (scrubyt gem) to complete this task.  However, I am open also to using php CURL.
