There's undoubtedly a sophisticated way to do this using Mathematica
itself to manipulate the notebook.  Here's a naive way to do it:

1. Open the notebook in an ASCII editor.  Search for the line:

   StyleDefinitions -> Notebook[{

2. Copy that line and everything below it up to, but NOT including, the

3. Delete the initial

   StyleDefinitions ->

4. Save the file as, say, MyStyles.nb.

5. Open MyStyles.nb in Mathematica.  Save it wherever you want to keep
this style sheet.


Near the end of the notebook proper, before
