Wow, I never expected such a response from my initial post about pointers and
linked lists that seemed to turn in to a discussion of generic modules.
  The use of generic structures, whether it be pointers or modules or whatever,
has always escaped me.  I have always been forced to write new sorting
procedures every time I wished to address a new data structure with such
procedures as quick sort or bubble sort. NEVER AGAIN.  The code I have seen has
given me the information I need to incorporate such "generic" data into my own
procedures.  The generic sorting procedures posted by Ole-Bjorn Tuftedal,
written by Richard S. Wiener (is that REALLY his name, what was he called in
high school "Dick Wiener"?? C'mon!) are extremely helpful.
  Thanks again for all the guidance and code.  Now if somebody could post a
generic program that could EVERTHING under the sun I would be *REALLY*
impressed! :-)
        Thanks,
           S. Pendleton
