Arrrgh... and to think I was SOoooo close in my earlier attempts.
I've been digging through the documentation and Dan's book all evening
and knew that "repeat for each" was what I needed... just couldn't get
the syntax quite right.

As far as the giggling goes, have at it! ...I'm accustomed to it and
don't mind a bit. =)

Thank you very much Sarah!
