Yes, but matching BY WHAT RULE(S)?  Which mask is the best match depends on 
what set of rules you're using - and unless I've misunderstood you, you seem to 
be saying that you have no particular set of rules in mind.  Therefore you 
cannot determine which mask is the better fit.

I have to run out shortly, but when I get back this afternoon I'll try to 
remember to look up the details on TSS and ACF2 masking.  Feel free to nag me.

I know Saymour, but originally this is not a racf question, but mask matching.
