I think I see the difference.  My code didn't have a final return after the
last line, yours did.  If I change my code to include the final return, the
return IS included in the result of the filter, even though it's the first
line that is in there, not the last one!!  That is very strange and just
reinforces my feeling that the definition os a line is not consistant.
