One day I will learn not to be so slap happy with the "rm -Rf" command. I spent ages making a crossword with an online program (asymptopia) and trying to format it nicely as a PDF file. I then forgot that it was stored in a directory I use for temporarily mirroring websites. I generally delete all files in this directory whenever I start a web editing session, just to make sure I don't accidentally upload an old file over a new one (a risk when you update a site from two different locations). So here we go - "rm -Rf ./* - DAMN DAMN DAMN!!"

And this is the guy who keeps telling his students to make backups of their essays ...
