I took my card out last night to load some images, and left it on the desk 
overnight.

This morning I found the card on the (carpeted) office floor.  I picked it up, 
popped it back into the K5 and turned the camera on so I could format it.

Turning the power on, there is about a 3-second pause (no lower-right access 
light as is normal upon power-up) and then a "card error" message.

I turned the camera off, and upon removing the card, I noticed that it was VERY 
WARM.  Repeating the cycle yields the same results.

There are no external signs of damage - but I guess it's remotely possible that 
my office chair rode over it on the carpeted floor.

Has anyone else ever seen a failure like this?  How is Sandisk to deal with in 
terms of checking out warranty coverage?  I may or may not have the packaging 
and receipt from 2+ years ago when I bought it...
