it's possible I saved afterwards, I don't remember. I think would have
avoided it, over concern that saving from a bad state would just make it
worse. In any case, it's gone now and that I'm grateful for.

Thank you for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate it, knowing
all too well how easy it is to led wierd problem reports sit idle. There is
always so much else to do!

best,
