Yeah, I figured as much, when I went to actually look at the camera, and it said something about being able to recover deletions that hadn't been written over with new info. Then I realized how silly my post was. Then I thought, "hell, I only wrote the post to sound contrary and curmudgeonly anyway, so even if I'm inaccurate, I've succeeded in attaining my goals..." <vbg> But, thanks for the additional info, Mark.
