Greetings. I'm having a problem with some mod_rewrite rules that some of 
y'all might be able to help me with.

I am trying to get the import scripts to work. The import scripts are fed 
through admin.php. The problem is that whenever I try to his admin.php:

http://example.com/slug/admin/admin.php?import=rss

mod_rewrite applies its rules to this script. from the rewrite log:

/Users/john/Sites/lyceum/] rewrite wp-admin/admin.php -> 
wp-admin/.php?b=wp-admin&b=j2Blog_2

now, i thought i had properly set mod_rewrite to COMPLETELY IGNORE 
requests for files that actually exist in the file system:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

Below is the entire .htaccess file. Please let me know if you have 
any insights.

John
