Kim:
You should recognize that ReplaceAll (/.) will work with the names of
Mathematica functions (in your case, Rule (->) and Equal (==) ), but
doesn't seem to work with their multi-character alias strings, even
when these are enclosed in quotes ("->" and "==").
Perhaps someone can tell us why quoted symbol strings won't work when
substituted for their associated function names.
Using your posted equations, we have ...
