Though note that the menu item is basically just a set of
directions in Scheme to start with one of the standard reports
and tweak the options that you modified.  This means that if you
load one of your custom reports, change more options, and try to
save it again, you may run into more problems.  For best results,
always start with one of the built-in reports before saving.  I
believe there is huge potential for improvement in this area in
the future, but for now it seems to work pretty well as long as
you're careful about how you do things.

I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though
she's too young to have logged on yet. Here's what I worry about.  I
worry that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say
"Daddy, where were you when they took freedom of the press away from
the Internet?"
