ok.  For instance to allow ping outbound, we would have one outbound ACL
with :

access-list 101 permit icmp any any echo

and another inbound with:

access-list 102 permit icmp any any echo-reply

This would allow the responses to our outbound pings but stop anyone from
the outside from initiateing a ping to a device behind ACL 102. Does that
sound correct?
