Yes, I thought that I had mentioned before that removing the PLM from 
the end is only for insteon items.  However, I can't explain why your 
incorporating Light_Items is an issue at all.  Once you get things 
squared away and there are fewer things for you to work through, you 
might retry the Light_Item.
