That's called... incompetence. Major upgrades, script changes and things like that should always be tested thoroughly before they happen on production systems.
That's where most of the work lies in that kind of job. Testing, planning, etc..
"spun out of control", did it?
IOW, someone didn't think hard enough before clicking Yes or hitting Enter.

sorry to hear Doc :(

how far back do you have data from?

to compound things, i've recently switched computers (to a new macbook, YEAH!) so my data is all over the place.

IIRC my last complete backup was from march, but my last DB backup was from a few weeks ago.
