I didn't want to manually run separate recovers, by typing in the
parameters 12 times. However, other things came up, and this ended up
being fast enough (since I only had to type in one script name, to get it
all done).
To do one command, I would have had to do "recover -S ssid#1 -S ssid#2"
etc. That would have been ideal, but I didn't have enough time to iron
that out (without typing in all those ssids). Being severely
short-staffed, I had to move onto other things. So this let me type just
one command, and if it was slower than one recover command with 12 ssids
passed to it as one block of parameters, it was still Good Enough.
