Things not to do
Well, on Friday my hard drive apparently decided that it was going to take its football and go home, so I spent the weekend doing a data retrieval (if you have the choice, never do this voluntarily), replacing the hard drive, reinstalling Windows without using Windows reinstallation disks (because Dell apparently doesn't include them when you purchase a notebook from them), and reinstalling all of my programs.
I got lucky that most of my data could be retrieved. Again, if you have the choice, do not voluntarily do any of that. It's about as much fun as open heart surgery.

Did anything ever come of your effort to look at Anon's suggestions re that Maine case? (also, your query at TPM re a way of searching that info, etc?)
I ask this here - as your post seems to allow for "searching" and "finding" - and I'm just wondering...
There are so many questions. And you were asking them at the right time.
Just wondered if you'd gotten any answers.
