Don't forget that rebuilding the desktop also zaps your comments
in the get info boxes. I never figured out what that box is for if
it's so danged fragile. I used to keep comments about what things
do (especially useful for those little thingamabobs you download
and file, thinking "yeah, I *might* use this someday) but then as
soon as you rebuild the desktop, *poof*. So I've had to resort to
text files, which is much less convenient. Oh, well.
