Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.

Yeah, sorry, I was still messing around with that part of the code.  My 
problem is that I have to differentiate between:

   (NP -x-y)

and:

   (NP-x -y)

I'm doing this now using Combine.  Does that seem right?

I think I'm okay:

py> 2 << 1 + 2
16
py> (2 << 1) + 2
6
py> 2 << (1 + 2)
16

Thanks for the help!
