Thanks Erik, Sape, and Skip.  That was such a STUPID error, and I thank
you all for the extra eyes.  I think it is time for a break and a bowl of
tea...

As a side note, I now have over 40 regression tests written, and as soon
as I soon as I clean up one of the servers to my liking I should have a
bunch more.

Thanks everyone.
