The purists will kill me for this, but the LOOP  END; EXITing when a hit is 
made is a very useful tool.  The academics will say it's crude and you can do 
the same thing with either REPEAT UNTIL or DO WHILE but there are lots of 
times when one hasn't the time or the inclination to struggle through one or 
the other.
