If I recall the data definition you just posted correctly, this  
doesn't match it.  Which elements of the data definition are self-

Yes, this part looks correct to me. It looks to me like you got the  
right number of clauses and the right number of pieces in each clause;  
it's just the very last step that needs fixing.
