Hi MathGroup gurus,

I get the following error from my input to NDSolve, but I am not sure
if I am actually violating the rule it says I am:

Boundary values may only be specified for one independent variable.
Initial values may only be specified at one value of the other
independent variable.

***Do you think I have violated the rule? What should I change?***

the input was as follows: (copy it into Mathematica and hit
ctrl+shift+n to get a more readable form)
