OMG.  I typed my command in the reverse method.  I also think of the
'target' as being different from what they call it in man

I consider the 'source' to be the actual file and 'target' to be the new
symbolic file.

Using my lingo, it is still
ln -s source target

But when I typed that out, I reversed the two.

Sorry for the confusion.

Incidently the only way that I ever remember that syntax is by doing a quick
test, ala Steven's comment, in /tmp
