Hey all,
I have run into a little problem that I cannot seem to figure out. If
you all could help me debug this simple error, that would be great. I
get this error all the time, so I assume that there is something wrong
with the way I'm coding this.
What I have is all this data in a very static format, and I want to put
it all in using one simple command. I am pretty inexperienced about how
this all works, but this is what I have designed so far.
I never have quite understood how this stuff all works, as I get this
kind of error all the time, so I assume I'm doing something consistently
that is against the rules.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
