Array with do while and if loop

Hi All,
I am trying to run a do while for an array. And in the do while, I'm trying to get a user response. Depending on the the answer, I go ahead and do something or I move on to next element in the array.
So far I can read the array, but I can't get the if statement to work. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Code:
#!/bin/bash
set -x
linenum=1
array=
ps -ef | grep myAgent | grep -v grep | awk '{print $8}' | while read line ;
do
    echo "$linenum : $line"
    set -- $line
    echo "$1"
    array[$linenum]=$1
    echo "  Would you like to analyze this instance ${array[$linenum]} (y/n)? "
    read response  ### this does not work
                if [ "$response" = Y ] || [ "$response" = y ] ; then
                      echo "Analysing"
                      sleep 10
                      # do some thing.. code snip ..
                fi
    linenum=$(( linenum + 1 ))
done

Thanks for looking.
