Gah. Yeah, okay, I was dim and might or might not be responsible for
killing a perfectly good thing. Was focused on the whole ma issue and
didn't think about the bigger picture. A fairly common fault with my
thinking on tech stuff.

Rachel, my sincere apologies if I contributed incomplete information
that caused damage to your thing.

Yes I did, yes I am and again I apologize. I am very highly burnt at the
moment and spending a lot of time in my quiet place with no sharp
objects in easy reach. 

I will ping the Kelly who probably has a DSLR we can use for this
project in her storage here and is likely to be back in the area in the
next few weeks specifically planning on digging into said storage.
