Ok,
Lots of good info here, ls -lh wordlist.db shows 38 m,
bogoutil -d wordlist.db > wordlist.txt then ls -lh wordlist.txt shows 18m.

bogoutil -d /.../wordlist.db | tail shows:
zzysbyj6 1 0 20070912
zzyzhtPffLXY3 1 0 20070912
zzz-tt-yy 4 0 20070912
zzz0Cr5 1 0 20070912
zzzTjnjC 1 0 20070912
zzziWz7PPPQAct9NBE3 0 1 20070305
zzzs 14 0 20070325
zzzz 0 1 20070806
zzzz.cwk 0 1 20070504
z~t 0 1 20070518
So it is the end of the alphabet.  Since I have no idea what  
transactions are, chances are Im not running them.  What is b0rked?   
I'll look through the faq in the morning.

thanks,
