The following is an alternative attempt at a stem & leaf plot (tacit & explicit 
versions):

Ric Sherlock sent me this on 1/17/2012

It takes tacit expressions and gives the corresponding explicit expression.

This is what I had in mind.  Is there a way to take exact line and product the 
explicit corresponding line of tacit code?

Hope this explains what I had in mind.

The "please do not respond" requirement tends to stifle responses.
(Wait a week to solve a five minute problem?  The effort involved in
the scheduling of the response winds up being significantly higher
than the response itself.)

(The ambiguities in the task itself sometimes exaggerates that issue.
The effort involved in going back and re-reading each post in this
thread to find the complete problem statement -- which was spread out
over several posts -- is also significantly higher than the amount of
effort needed to implement a solution to the problem.)
