Bleep!  Wrong answer!  Have you ever dragged (drug? :-) a folder to the
trashcan that was not empty?  I do it all of the time, and it work  just
fine as long as there isn't a folder called ".xxx" in it.

To refresh people's memory, there's a bug with TOS1.4 that will not allow
you to drag a folder to the trashcan and delete the files if there is a
folder in the folder that starts with a "."  (ie: .jnk)
