DOH! (I actually used more Lebowskiesque language here at the house)

Got it and this is what I normally use now. The epsfig was a legacy
header from back when most programs compiled to dvi first and I forgot
about that.

Not a jerk at all, and you are right. I had a simple file I was using,
I just did not know how to get the pdf that I wanted to insert to the
list. Could have saved us all the run-around. My apologies. If it is
any consolation I am spreading the Textmate message to all the mac
users in my class this semester.

Thanks for all your help. I spent days trying to diagnose this on my
own and I was really ready to chuck it all and give up when I finally
sought the help of the list.
