The Danger of the “rm” command

If any of you are wondering why the theme has changed completely and several of the plugins etc., have vanished… Well I just taught myself a nice little lesson about the dangers of using the following:
rm -r -f *
I successfully cleaned up my blog by killing it 🙂
Oh well! It was about time I cleaned up, as there were plugins and God only knows what else dating back about 3 years.
The main page now has a mere 26 queries, instead of the massive 109 it had previously.
I’ll be playing around with the layout a bit as I need to put some things back in, but I will make a BIG effort to keep it simple this time. (That probably won’t work, but at least I can start out trying!)
