Argghhh!  

I hate org-mode sometimes [1]: just when I think I'm reaching a stable
system, somebody comes along and makes me realise how much better
(easier to manage/understand) my system would be if I put yet more
under org-mode control!

Time to go through my .emacs etc files -- if you don't hear from me
for several months, you'll know why!
