<div dir="ltr">Thanks so much. FLO did such a good job of cleaning out retracings and () in funny places that I was using it. I'll go back and start over with KWAL and then, as you suggest, run FLO at the end. Thanks too for the command to extract a list of all speakers. I had tried several very wrong ways and never got close.
