Bob, just slipped in here to see if I could get you to show how to put
all that into a single statement that does all those things with one
command.

I'm thinking to be able to turn it off and on quickly.

resulted in a visit to the emergency room for paren-mania.  They only
had one real treatment that worked... lots of morphine.
