OK problem solved, but it was a subtle one. When I corrected an error in the
line:

\setupcolumnset[two][1][width=1.5in]

everything stopped working. When I simply commented out the line things
worked again. As near as I can figure the overall width of the two columns
was too great. 

This is perplexing since I set the paper up in landscape and I should have
had plenty of width. Here was my paper setup and my setuplayout:
 \setuppapersize[letter,landscape][letter,landscape]
\setuplayout
  [topspace=0.5cm,
   leftmargin=1cm,
   rightmargin=1cm,
   width=middle,
   grid=yes,
   footer=1.5cm,
   header=1.0cm,
   height=middle]

I am not sure of the effect of width=middle and height=middle.
