start dates disappear and predecessor ignored when I re-open file

Greetings,
Thank to the developers and those on the list who've helped make this
product. I find it extremely helpful. But I have had one difficulty:
I have a project with many links. The task list includes two sets of
subtasks, and it's those which get confused. When I re-load the program,
their predecessor seems to be ignored, and on the Gantt chart they show
up far to the left. Their start date, normally in 2004, shows January 1
1970, though it's categorized as ASAP.
The correct the problem, each time I load the file I have to delete
those predecessors and add them again.
I'm running 0.10 on Red Hat 9. I had the problem on 0.9.1, too--same
file. It's pasted below. Thank you for any help anyone can provide.
Peace and all good,
Greg McAvoy-Jensen
