 * Do you have a good back of your DB taken prior to this issue? If so, try restoring
   it.
 * Alternately, you can ask your hosting provider if they have a backup of your 
   site. If they do, ask them restore it.

 * Luckily, I had a copy of the demo site on my server – just finished porting it
   back to my desktop… Will make it a point to have a backup of the site when it
   goes live. So weird. Never happened before, to me anyway. 🙂
