Hi Heath,

It appears that your doubly matching your agent clyde because of a
miscalculation in what you need to do once you perform a match.  Look at
your algorithm again, and notice that you 

while( user )
1. Do user
2. Do sibling
end while

now, since the sibling is also a user, then you are doing two users in
the outer loop (in your sample file), and also doing the second of those
two in the inner loop.  if you had three, it would be like this:

sample: users a,b,c
output: agents a,b,c,b,c,c

of course, with the limited children of some of the because they are
matched separately.

Is this similar to the current thread on " read/write in the same
xml file" ??

I hope this helps,
