Using \begingroup...\endgroup took care of it. I knew there had to be a 
really simple way of doing this.

Now I just need to test for the correct sizing for the environment so 
the text is drawn at the proper size. Well, I guess this is one way to 
learn TeX...though piecemeal.

Thanks much to you and Mr. Shulz.

Regards,
Musa
