Drive format is toasted, that didn't work either.

Either that, or Murphy has moved back north for the summer, somebody is 
sure drinking all my near beer. ;-)  Miller64 is about 2.4% if I read 
the label right.  It doesn't blow my sugar up at least.  But I hurt so 
bad last night it took 3, over about 8 hours before I finally got some 
sleep.

Getting old is NOT for wimps folks. ;-)
