The problem is you use vector-ref to pull the string out of the vector, 
then don't put the result of regexp-replace* back into a vector.  This 
line would do it:

(list #(,(regexp-replace* a-string (vector-ref (first T) 0) 
(string-append "<<" a-string ">>")))))

This is just for general education. YC's method of using map and vector 
map is better for actually doing this.
