Hi Larry,
Nothing stupid at all about your question.
Brandon or John can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the behavior
of the remove() method has changed recently in svn. With recent svn
versions, the elements are completely destroyed (to avoid memory
leaks?). Clearly I'm not the most informed person when it comes to
this issue, but I wanted to make sure that someone at least replied to
your question.
Can anyone confirm or deny my suspicions?
Thanks,
--Karl

I have a quick, and stupid, question. When I use the remove() method,
elements are removed from the DOM, but they still seem to be hanging
around in memory. How do I completely destroy an element?
Thanks,
Larry
