Um. I guess what I mean is this: I only get a printout that shows the first
owner name from the section.  That is, if the get returns something like
{'Kathi','Kristi','Mark','Malcolm'}, I would get only
report initialized for Kathi

It's possible I actually have keys defined for Kristi, Mark and Malcolm as
well, but it doesn't tell me that I do, so I can't trust it.

If I do it the other way, I get report lines for Kristi, Mark, and Malcolm
like I expect.
