I too wonder this. It seem like you've followed all the correct protocols and your an experienced keeper so it's not like you've never done this. Do you maybe have some insight on how it happened? Or maybe some insight on how to avoid it from happening in the future for the rest of us? This seems like a good educational moment for us all.
