Next up: the mixed feelings should you find the cause. The
satisfaction of having nailed it. The dissatisfaction that you had to.
The best I can suggest is to start suspecting
everything. Start close to the problem and spread out as
needed. That is what I did with my alias problem noted above. My
code should have worked and usually did, but since it did not, I had
to kludge it.
Best of luck.
