1) It helps concentration GREATLY if one:
     a) gets more than 5.5 and 3hrs of sleep in the previous two nights
     b) isn't distracted while reading email as rsync's restore files to
        a whole series of sub-websites (my own!) that were nuked by the
        quite accidental trigging of the semantical difference between 
        "directory" and "directory/" in the rsync data source   (*dry cough*)
        (Perhaps I should have just worked on the docs, not the 'makedist'
         program that was the culprit...I -knew- I was 3 sheets to the wind.)

2) I get it now.  Okay, so go to www.baen.com and hit the free library,
print out 5 pages from any of their free books, and go hit Staples.  QED.
Better yet, rip the pictorials out of Penthouse and have fun watching the
expressions on the faces of the staff at Staples when you want to copy
-THAT-!  *laugh*  I'm sorry, that just hit me as so funny right now...

3) Thanks to those that pointed out that I need to sleep more, and my
lapse in comprehension.  I'll get uhm, about 4hrs if I get to sleep in
20min.  Joy.  BUT...things have settled down around here from earlier in
the week, and are better.  And I'm nearing release of the SQL version of
my new product--and will soon be posting a link to the description and
features and finding out if there's enough interest to justify porting
it to filePro.  All I need are the docs.  The code is all there.  Docs.
It's always docs.  Again with the docs--always with the docs.  It's a big
docs-a-ball!

Okay...I -think- I should sleep now.

*zonk*  Only call me today if platters fly out the sides of the server or
something equally disastrous.

Now for some bedtime music.  <Homer>Mmmmmm...Tori...</Homer>
