Summary: 


Touche', one and all.  I concede, I blew it.  Serves me right for  shooting
from  the  hip.  Yes,  a  magnet  will  do  work  in lifting a nail a small
distance.  The image I had in my head (and erroneously responded to) was of
the  nail  being  moved  a fair distance -- say several inches or so.  That
would require an outside source of energy.  I will now go sit in the corner
and  write  100  times  "Engage brain before setting mouth (or keyboard) in
motion.".
