Yes, that's true.  Basically, I've got a part in the middle that I 
wanted to make into the new "beginning."  Actually, I think I've found a 
way to save it just the way it is without doing that though, which would 
be good, because it flows better left the way I played it.

The only reason I didn't say anything though is because I was enjoying 
all this good technical information about project editing.  :)
