Thanks! I was beginning to worry I was the only one that still occassionally gets woken up in the night for a tape error. Tapes wear out, heads get dirty, writes fail. These days the error is almost always caught on the write, but I did have a 3590 refuse to read a tape a few months ago. First one that I can remember in a long, long time though.
