Wow, 
  sounds like you have a lot of energy for a weekend with the scouts. To tell you the truth when I saw the PIC I didn't think Steindachneri because I can't remember the ones I've kept looking quite like that. But, later I saw a PIC of a Steindachneri in a book and I thought the book PIC looked more like it then the ones I use to keep.

  I do appreciate you break down of the ID. I will save it for future reference.
                                                 Thanks again Mike.
