When I load Jeremy's file, it all straightened out.  So I did a careful 
comparison with mine, and discovered another typo. The image is 600x550, 
and I calculated the values that way, byt my second tiepoint was delared 
to be 599,449, a full 100 pixels off, which explains the extreme 
stretching.
   My algorithm was OK, but my fingers are too fat, and my eyeballs aren't 
as sharp as they used to be...
