The key to not having the sets re-merge is to make sure that the first set has 
an odd number of couples in it. The extra couple waiting out at the bottom is 
then never there at the same time as the extra couple waiting out at the head 
of the other set. I do not, however, have any suggestion about how to cause 
that to happen in a set that has already taken hands four.

In our set, we attempted to do the split for Chorus Jig as well, but the set 
spontaneously re-merged at some point.  The up-and-down movements in Chorus Jig 
probably make that more likely to happen.
