hi John,

Your commments are very interesting--I like the ability to customize program
analysis for my own purposes!

1. Can I add more 'levels' of coments, such as (example only):

tiny(10-16)=20
small(17-25)=25
moderate(26-40)=
significant(41-60)=60
serious(61-132)=132
major(133-233)=233
major_blunder(234-2999)=2999

Perhaps the output 'grammar' for the comments would require some wording
changes, but you get the idea.

2. Anything to watch out for (be aware of), if I try this?

Thanks for a most interesting posting!

--Steve
