Petr,

  Thanks, actually dug that post up already and been trying to
decypher it...  My closest approximations still aren't working.

  Perhaps someone will be kind enough to do a full step by 
step breakdown of the stuff below?  Feel like I understand it
pretty well, it's just not working when I go to implement my
own version of the same.

  Would really appreciate it.

  Cheerfulness,

                                                ------EAT
