[ale] Thanks - and another Bash script question

[Christopher Bergeron]

Bob, could you put quotes around the "elements" _before_ you put them 
into the ct var?  I'm assuming that you're getting them from data source 
or a prior portion of the script.  If so, pre-massaging the data might 
help you extract better...

Just my .1 cent(s)
