I think that's a fairly good methodology to follow.  I usually do that... 
except when I run into a huge list of multiple conditions for each 
possibility (TRUE && FALSE OR FALSE && TRUE) etc.  To me IF/ELSEIF is easier 
to ready in that case, and SWITCH is a LOT easier to read if you have one 
variable and have a CASE for each possibility of that variable.  Just my 
opinion of course :)

I guess when it came down to it I just had to stick with what works for me.  I 
cleaned up a lot of the totals and counting, so it's MUCH easier to read 
now :)

To imitate Tedd...
