I've thoughts about how to speed it up - will be testing them out.

It's in here...
forall series [
clear blk
parse/case series/1 rule
append/only ptrs copy blk
append last ptrs series/1
]
'forall leaving 'series at its tail, so the 'clear that follows
doesn't clear it. Change it to the following and it should fix that
problem. (Though not your other one. See my other post about that.)
foreach s series [
clear blk
parse/case s rule
append/only ptrs copy blk
append last ptrs s
]
