That'd be too logical for a ham radio operator to figure out (tounge in cheek)

I see this fairly often on the mysql servers at work - but usually as
a result of a hardware crash.  We use a shell script that will run a
"CHECK TABLE" command on all tables, then follow it with a script that
looks at the output to find corrupt tables, and does a "REPAIR TABLE"
on them.

The normal operation of MySQL is to lock the table when it detects
corruption - that way it can continue to serve other requests that it
can complete.
