P.S. I was going to mention, but I forgot: email managed to strip
trailing spaces from your message. This caused an error in the phrase
1 5 9&{;._2 top

One workaround here is to insert trailing spaces so that that phrase evaluates.

Another approach though would be to replace it with 1 5 9{];._2 top

Perhaps better would be to replace }:1 5 9&{;._2 top with the more
verbose (}: #"1~ ' '~:{:)];._2 top

Thanks,
