To the Kindle your bookmark is really just a time stamp with some additional information attached; which book, what page you were reading when you stopped, etc. So if your clock is no longer valid the kindle has no way of knowing which bookmark is the most current. Clocks are *sometimes* lost when you run completely out of power, upgrade your software, use 3rd party software to transfer books, etc. My clock dropped back to Jan 1 1970 (epoch) after a pdf generated reset (go figure). Turning the wireless back on reset the clock and the bookmarks snapped into place perfectly. And I'm back in business!
