Some memory corruption..? or..?
Strange indeed.

The (my) mind's first reaction is "can't happen".
Unfortunately, I have been at this long enough to know that "anything can happen".

Perhaps the effect of caching something, somewhere?

Post if it happens again - it might be "real" and related somehow to your device and its set-up.

PS: Thanks.
