We should start a club. I did the exact same thing on the /dev/rheader0
partition. It took me two days to get the machine up fully. I figured
when I typed format it would at least give me some warning with an option
to abort if major damage could be done.

I have since built a shell around the format command to prevent any 
unwitting successor (or my own forgettful self) from repeating the mistake.

The delay of my reply is due to my absence from work last week.
