The "Save and Name" option only saves the situation in RAM.  There is
another option on the menu that "Save and Name" and "Restore" are on which
saves all the situations on the "Restore" menu on a disk (you're expected to
insert another disk -- they think in terms of SS disks).

We at John Fluke are right next to Boeing's Paine Field, which you can take
off and land at in MFS.  They don't show Fluke on the map, but it's easy to
figure it out.  It's great fun to try to land in my office area....
