+    you should inspect if you wish to override any methods in your plugin. The methods of use
+    to plugin developers are:
+    collect() - use the functions sosCp and sosRunExe to gether information
+    analyze() - perform any special analysis you require beyond just saving the
+                information gathered by collect(). Use sosAlert() and sosAddCustomText()
+                to add information to the report.
+    report() - override this method if you wish to replace the default reporting

+    All plugins will use collect(), some will use analyze(), few will override report()
