Scenario:  Working on my backup software, I'd dumped the database and was relabelling tapes.  I'd just ejected a freshly relabelled tape.  Wen the Eternally Surprised looked at the tape drive that had rudely spat a tape out in her direction, reached out, and pushed the tape back in.

"No!" I told her. "Don't touch the tapes!  I just ejected that tape.  Now I'll have to eject it again."  So saying, I turned back to my keyboard and ejected the tape again.

So she pushed the power button instead.  I hadn't told her today not to touch that....
