Well, it finally happened. I trashed a valuable disk without a backup copy! 
I was copying, switching disks in and out quickly, decided a really needed a ramdisk 
for the job, shut the ATARI off and booted with the disk that had HARRIS's ramdisk
on it. When it finally booted, it didn't execute my AUTO folder. The icons were
there but the names were trashed and when I tried to open the trashed folders, 
the disk searched but didn't find anything and I got a "disk damaged" alarm box. 
Does anyone know how to salvage something from this disk? I can get access to SECED, 
TTOOL, and JOSHUA from friends in my user's group, but haven't used any of these 
programs. My life, or at least my livelihood  is on the line here.
