Odd... I modified the search page to save the initial CGI into SCRATCH 
variables and then the search to only use the SCRATCH variables rather 
than the earlier combination of CGI and SCRATCH.  Now, when I hit the 
first page on the search, it is still good but when I click on pages 2, 
3 or Next, it repeats the same page.

Granted, the URL's for those links are very long, but I see nothing that 
would indicate any 'stepping' for the next in sequence...  Have I got 
something in the original search screwed up too which is messing with 
the more-list?
