Good.  This will allow a much saner dumpcycle and tapecycle setting.

Suggestion.  Don't put them all in the tapecycle, save back the last 1 
or 2 so that if a tape should upchuck for some reason, you have an 
instant spare that only needs to be labeled with the next number in 
the sequence (don't re-use an old label, at least till that label is 
expired at the end of tapecycle by amanda) and placed in service.
