The debugging process of that thread and the SYN stuff was pretty enjoyable. I was deleting through most of the other stuff and there was a lot of stuff to delete recently. Unfortunately, I deleted the early background of the "Disappearing Directory Problem". Which I didn't notice was interesting until the tail end of the thread.
