How am I supposed to get a killer uptime if I do stuff like that?  ;-)

Hmmmm, well that sucks.  :-)  `ps -ax` reveals the STAT of my two dead 
processes is indeed D, which according to the manpage is "uninterruptible 
sleep (usually IO)".  And neither 12 not 15 killed them either.  Sigh.  

Well, thanks guys.  I guess a reboot is the answer (it's just this isn't the 
first time my silly watch has done this, so I was hoping for something 
faster/cleaner in case it does it in the future - rebooting is just so 
Microsoft).
