Thanks, Bob.  It took way more grunt than I expected, but I got them off and
replaced.

The arm has a small, circular, 'tit'--for lack of a better word--on the end.
The wiper assembly should have a springy tang that engages the 'tit;' you
pull outward on the tang whilst pulling on the assembly and it should slide
off, but sometimes it takes a bit of grunt.

OK, I'm stumped.  How do you remove the wiper blade assembly from the wiper
arm?  The blade assembly rotates about 90 degrees, but from there I cannot
figure out how to get it off the arm.  I don't want to bend the arm or
damage the spoon by tugging too hard or jamming stuff into the wrist joint.
Everything I read just says to remove the wiper from the arm.  What's the
trick?
