Thank you for mentioning this code.  I have looked for a tuple 
"for_each" as well.  I looked at the fusion code, and  I noticed there 
is quite a bit of similiarity in functions to mpl sequences.  Does this 
mean that tuples will work with mpl sequences, so that a tuple 
implements all the required interfaces for mpl?

Thanks
