It's good to see you got it working.  Sorry I couldn't respond in time  
-- I'm presently in Rome this semester and my turnaround is much  
slower than normal.

I used to have a variant of Artificial Ant which did typed GP for a  
demo example, but sadly I can't find it anywhere.  FWIW, if you search  
the ECJ mailing list archives you'll also find a lot of examples and  
discussion about strongly typed GP.
