I was afraid of running a checkdb. First, I wasn't sure how to do it in
SQL, and second, I was afraid that running that procedure from the Emerald
2.1.8 Administrator might cause damage to the database. Maybe these are
groundless fears... if I was sure that I could recover a database once it
was ruined, I suppose I wouldn't be so fearful about it.
