You are helping a great deal.  I haven't had a minute to give it one
last try, but, thanks to you and Geoff, I think I'm very close to
getting it to work.  As with most programming problems, you have to
understand *what* the problem is, and I think I'm starting to get a
handle on how this system works.

I'm going to try to write up the whole thing for people who are
neither as knowledgable as you *or* Geoff :)
