Answer Question
Forget about German 3/16 for now.
After writing that long post, when I went back into the lesson, all that funkiness was gone. I don't know how Fluenz is set up, but something strange was going on. Maybe there's something in the transaction log. It definitely looked like a corruption. I'm still can't explain how *that* level of "wrongness" could reach me. Until it's explained, it's unresolved. It could really freak out others. Thanks.
