Thanks Sarah, you are right.  In perl,  "cut" serves the function of
eliminating a block of code from being executed in a script.  When "=cut" is
placed above and below the code that you do not wish to execute then the
interpreter will skip over the code.  There are lots of ways to solve the
problem, but cut is a handy solution.

Thanks.
