What's even worse is your conscience wants to type
CLRLIB QTEMP
but your brain and fingers type
CLRLIB someotherlibrarythatDOES exist

and you are wondering why it's taking so long

Fortunately (for me) it was my own development library on the development box
Only the gods know what my brain was doing at that time
Still took a while to restore it - but with that one action you definitely don't
need any exercise for that day

Has anybody ever meant to put a "5" on a member, and put a "4" on it by mistake?

Kind of makes you jump, when you get the "Do you really want to delete xxxxx?"
confirmation screen, don't it?
