Bugs assigned to Phil by David on November 11, 2008.

NOTE [11-17-2008]: I'm uncomfortable fixing this at the GUI level, as Nancy suggests; (see "Fix" note). BEFORE any actual deletion operations occur, and without any modification to the Exchange, a call to the public method, SeriesSlot::clearSeriesBeforeDelete() results in the assertion at the end of Exchange::slotChanged(). It would probably take me several days to understand what's going on down here. I'm going to move on to other bugs.

Note also that this is an Assertion Failure, not an actual crash (in the release build). Possibly, the Assertion can be removed, but this should be done only after understanding the intention for the relevant code.

NOTE [11-20-2008]: Actually, we DID end up addressing part of this in the GUI -- READ MORE.
