Well, actually you don't lose any information because you still have
list_of_strings available. If you want to append items to arrays in the
dict instead of keeping a count in the dict, that's fine too. I guess I
misunderstood; I thought he just wanted a list of unique entries,
regardless of case.=20

line program, but you're right.=20
Thanks for the feedback.
