That is one of the things that I had a problem with last night. I found 
my scans in process, but I don't think I can tell you where right now. 
The next time I look I suppose I will have to hunt again. Honestly, what 
was the point in rearranging everything when we were used to it being 
the way it was and could quickly find what we wanted because we were 
used to it. This is like waking up in the morning and falling over 
furniture because while you slept someone rearranged everything in your 
house. Sure, you can get used to the new arrangement, but there would be 
no need to take so many falls and deal with the frustration if the 
arrangement had just been left as it was.
