Yes David, you're right.  Note below that I did mention using flags for
this, and I do check for such things in code that's used across accounts.
I was just trying to simplify the code and I swear I started itching as
soon as I tweaked that reference to check the file descriptor instead of a
flag.  So much for trying to keep it simple.

Thanks for keeping me honest.  :)
