Ah, excellent. Thanks!
(I've been burned in the past by subtle changes in capitalization;
e.g., series that change from mixed-case to uppercase, and then there
are instances like k. d. lang where it's never clear whether the
broadcaster is going to capitalize it they way -they- like it or
the way every one else capitalizes names, etc...)
