Naturally, I have no idea what the timing on the events here really was. Nor am I going to go look....
Even if you look, you probably cannot find out later as we use rsync to copy the data from our servers here to the externally visible web server. That makes it impossible for you to find out the exact moment when I fell asleep and my head banged on the keyboard...

tal one. Hence, descriptions of a software entity that abstract away
its complexity often abstract away its essence. - Fred Brooks, Jr.
