No, what happens is that exactly what I wanted to happen was happening. I just didn't stop to think about the output code that skipped N periods between outputs. What looked dead was actually just severely stunned. All is working now. If you are using code like my pseudo-code to adjust periods, that is great. It works just fine. Sorry for the false alarm. Nothing to see here. Move along...
