Yes, dear.  My database must have gotten corrupted again.

Which reminds me of something else I'm sure to screw up.  I read somewhere 
once that New York Gong had another name, Material, Magazine, or something 
like that (I never could remember which).  Material and Magazine are both 
real groups.  Any idea?
