I didn't really use S/G 5--but (blush) I used 568 and changed it to 5 (when
I should have used 05) for posting here, because I wanted to avoid
embarrassment in front of you and Robert. Let's not go into why it was 568
in the first place. Mea culpa.

Son of a gun! It certainly does exactly what I wanted. It never pays to
underestimate U2 (and you too).
