Lol, I wish. I might take up drinking if this happens again... Holy cow... Maybe Blockchain.info is drinking, or just having a good laugh at my expense... This has been just plain bizarre. It makes sense for people to think I don't understand how it works or phished, etc., because I'm describing to you things that make no damn sense... Yet it happened...

My best guess at this point is that the Blockchain.info interface just went wonky, nothing nefarious, possibly just a very poor/misleading/unexpected handling of a rare event possibly not observed in testing...
