  1. Today's mindf*ck: How to pass a variable expansion from one bash shell to another without it expanding in the first bash shell. I think I figured it out: escape the $, so it's like this: \${my_var}. I have no idea how to google this...there was a lot of crying involved.

      The ultimate answer for me, though, is to use JSON as an input to the commands rather than trying to specify all of the arguments on the command line.
