 * Got a couple of plugins up and running, but when I try to ad more, I get the 
   following error – for any plugin
 * `Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate
   71 bytes) in /home1/customj1/public_html/wp-admin/includes/plugin.php on line
   4`

 * For the benefit of others with this problem
 * I solved this myself. Created a php.ini file in public_htlml and changed memory
   limit to 64MB from original 32MB setup in master on server.
 * Then to apply the fix, made a copy of php.ini wp-plugins directory. It seems 
   that the ini file must exist wherever php files do.
 * Bingo. It works.
