Rokkit:
I loaded your sketch (below) and the display worked properly - see picture.
Thanks Rokkit. That pretty well drives the final nail in my LCD's coffin.
The very first 4x20 LCD I ever bought turned out to be wierdly bad. Whodda thunkit?
Case closed.
I finally got the replacement LCD Display.
It works perfectly.
Case closed.
Thanks for all the help, guys.

Always see the sunny side:
Didn't you learn a great deal with this ?
Yes, I did. 
On the other hand, look at all the trouble I caused for a lot of people over bad hardware. :0
There is no gravity. The world sucks. 
But I know all about LCD's now ---- well, sort of.
