The eternal2 ramdisk that I posted does have its limitations.  The first
limitation that you pointed out is indeeed annoying but I find the ramdisk
is still quite useful since I often do not need the contents of the ramdisk
when I resize.  I believe ETERNAL2 is superior to the INTERSECT ramdisk which
I had been using in order to get resizing.  Now I have freed up some space 
since I no longer need it.  I intend to code up a ramdisk which resizes itself
automatically (lots of little details to take care of here) and takes care of
the limitation mentioned.  Maybe someone can beat me to it (hopefully).

I will have to check out the second limitation.  I did not test for that.

Finally, I should have mentioned this before but you can use any shift key
to zero the ramdisk on reset (I guess an appreciation for symetry got the
best of me).
