Alan,

Noop, in fact I thought you did an excellent job of explaining the
problem and I appreciate the ground work you performed. You are correct,
the multiple request lines should of work in the manner that you expected
without all the reclass messages.  Actually, I think you might of found a
bug in the LDM.  I'm cc the LDM maintainers to see if they can duplicate
the problem or find an error that I missed.
