Having been caught by things like this before, I would suggest a
small modification to Bob's script:

This will work if the numbers in your list go to > 9 and they are not
in numeric order. For instance,
10
10
10
2
2
1
1
1
If you just check "is in" the script will skip '1', since 1 is in 10.
The 'among the lines of' forces the comparison to only consider whole
line matches.
