Ok, so I had a 5 gig disk image I was using for a guest OS. I deleted it and it brought be down to about 93% usage, and gave me back KDE. Then I did a series of du -s /* etc, which took me to a directory I created for a Java application I'm writing. Somehow, a file called fool was created, and it was enourmous. I deleted it and it brought me down to 22% usage. Is that insane or what? I guess the file was appropriately named.....

Thanks

-Peter
