Listers,

I guess not to surprisingly I had a HUGE response to my request for info.  I 
really do appreciate that.

After reading all the responses and stewing on it overnight I elected to use 
the "heat to red and then beat with a dolly technique".  Worked like a 
champ.  I suppose a real pro would be able to tell where I did the 
straightening but to my untrained eye it looks pretty good.  Add to that the 
fact that its mostly covered by the lower valance and I'm satisfied with the 
result.

Again, thanks to all who responded.
