Haha. That's too funny. I was running OpenWindows one time and this stupid
twitchy Sun mouse (really sensitive buttons ;p) MADE me mistakenly drag
the /etc folder into the /bin folder... My mistake was to reboot - had to
reinstall.
On another computer I did a "rm *" when I meant to do a "rm *~", lost that
one too. ;)
I know this isn't very helpful, but at least you know you're not the only
