Thanks.  I had searched the list about the color inversion problem, and 
hadn't used the right search terms, I guess, because I didn't find 
anything, including the above.  I had only just noticed the flip problem 
and hadn't yet had time to search for it -- and was writing after 
midnight, when my brain had turned to a pumpkin.

Now I have to search the list to find out why write_sf~ only records one 
second of the sound.
