You'd definitely be better to go with Bill's advice on this, but if you need other ideas, what I did is (sort of) documented here: http://www.geocities.com/cat8741/process.html
I had a heck of a time getting that old poly off and ended up taking some real chances with brutal methods. I have no background or experience with wood finishing so mine was a lot of not-so-professional improvising. Plus of course advice from folks here. 
Feel free to PM me with any questions.
