Hey Karl,
   The two sets of data already fit perfectly into 2 of the tables already in
the fecal schema, so it seems these are just additions to that.  The 
only thing
I didn't think of before is, Laurence, or Jeanne... is this ALL new 
data, or is
some of it duplication of what is already in those tables?

I will change the permissions on the schema using babase_admin and then work
under my username.
