    Well, a quick peek at your directory reveals:

    AI   RAY   
    FREE BLOCKS #0=285 #1=2674 
      ...
      0   TS     E       59 +161 ! 10/21/86 11:27:25 (10/22/86) 
      ...

    A look at this file reveals that it is an SBLK file, so it is unlikely that
    this is an EMACS that you dumped out for yourself intentionally.
    (Especially since it appears to be a vanilla EMACS with no libraries
    loaded.)  Perhaps you should delete this file.

Thanks, Alan!  I never thought to look there.  Removing the bogus
emacs fixed the problem.  I wonder where the hell it came from.
