So I wasnt paying attention and "reset" Safari... can I get my history back?

[jdc]

Well hell, that was easier than I thought.

thanks cbelt.

did just as it said -- went to users/jdc/libray/safari -- selected the history, last session and top sites plist and restored from last night, 2:52 am.

restarted safari, reopen all windows from last session... done. =)
