Convert a Lead to Multiple Contacts

Hello!  I cracked this last week and wanted to share my working code with everyone.  This is for a scenario when you have multiple "contacts" or contact data on the lead object that will need to become multiple contacts.  For this one, we had 3 sections on the page where we were capturing data for brokers, Owners, ect.  This code takes each of those sections and creates a new contact for each section.  feel free to comment with any suggestions to enhance or if you have any addition questions about how it is setup.  Thanks!
