To be fair to Benjamin, I did change some of the quoting when I made  
my last major pass through the code.  Every time I do a release I try  
to clean up, improve, and extend this script so that the next release  
is easier.  This time, I did a bunch of work on it and part of that  
was making it easier for me to read and hack on.

I appreciate Benjamin's work on the script.  It's not worth it to me  
to change these back to single quotes, but I won't complain if that  
"magically" happens by the next time I have to touch it. :)
