Thanks for the quick replies.   I found my mistake (my Dict declaration 
what missing a type).   Coming from Haskell, I find Elm's error messages a 
Joy as they are normally right on the money.  This was a rare instance 
where the error message had me barking up the wrong tree.   

Having said that, even one line examples in the  package Docs is extremely 
helpful but not always there.  Such an example would have ruled out "maybe 
I am using empy incorrectly" 

Thanks again
