I should have mentioned that will not work for this case.  You'll notice 
that these are not all nice ascii characters.  some are spaces, some 
deletes, some other hex values...I don't know what they all are because 
they will not copy and past nicely.  They don't appear at all when I do 
list_members.  Any other ideas
