Hi Myrna,

Can you please tell us the title of this piece?  I often find that when I
ask colleagues for help with a pattern, having the title of the piece is
quite useful; there can be other libraries that own the title that have
patterns in place for it, or have workarounds to deal with the pattern.

Thanks,

Patty Hatch
