Update - I scoured the archives looking for possible leads and found several posts that indicated possibly having a bad slave cylinder, even though I was getting some movement out of it when I first tested it.

I bled the slave cylinder and when I re-started the van.  I depressed teh clutch and attempted to get into all gears.  Finally, it went into fourth, a little notchy, but it went in.  Right after that, with the clutch depressed, I was able to get it into all gears.  I decided to try a quick run around the block.  It shifted a little notchy at first, but smoothed out in the first 1/4 mile.  Then, after only going a 1/4 mile further, it started displaying the same symptoms again, not wanting to go into gear.  I limped back home in fourth.

Dennis, I thank you for your advice.  I was starting to think along that lines, too.

Brian
