  You have just describe the cleanest way to solve intractable
template problems.  I use this method for any troublesome or quirky
template. I keep a very vanilla normal.dot around just for this. In
this way I can inhale the troublesome document into a new template
based on the vanilla normal.dot.
Btw, congrats on the new job.
Regards
Eric
