interestingly, I get an error on the above line even though I put this
section of the code in a new routine to test it out:
Global symbol "@split_names" requires explicit package name at
resPrint.pl line 617
but, I/you used "my @split_names" so what is it complaining about a
global for? Nothing like that exists anywhere else in my code.
