No, that still gives me the scratch buffer over the top and the the two
windows I want down below.  When I had the startup page activated it would
override one of the two buffers that I had selected but for some reason the
scratch buffer is dividing the screen horizontally and place itself over the
top of the two buffers I open at the end of .emacs

Going to have to look at some of the emacs documentation.   What I am trying
to create is a bit of elisp magic that will open the agenda on the right
buffer and my refile.org (with everything I have captured that needs sent to
a home and some dblocks with recently opened items and maybe another one
with my unscheduled todo's.
