Scott,
I could see that the 'source' command is like an 'execute'. I know there
is a way to permanently mount the USB port (if port is the right word),
but after copying one file from the thumb drive to a file in linux I
have no immediate need to access it now. Remembering
mount /dev/sdb1 USB-1
is not possible and so I created a file with this line in it. I ran
source usbmount.stan
and it mounted the USB port. Very neat.
