OK. New theory here. This came about in another thread about the
shiney new kernel, that isn't new by the way. Anyway, look at
this crap:

Why are some using the group users and others using my test user
dale2? I don't think I have a group dale2. Could this be the
cause? What exactly tells Linux to give those permissions? I
looked around in /etc for some file that would set this but I
can't find anything.
Even if this isn't the cause, how do I go about fixing this?

The group shows instead of the GID, meaning the group is most
definitely on your PC. You may want to check/change your primary
group for dale. You can do this with:
usermod -g users dale
Then update the permissions on the files:
chown -vR dale:users/home/dale/*
You may want to backup your home directory first.
I got it fixed and this helped a lot. I also took the backup advice to,
just in case. ;-)
Thanks much.
