OK, gentlemen. I figured it out. I'm just an idiot. If you look at the 
top of this Ruby script, you'll see that I do a parse of the PDF file to 
see if it's a "healthy" PDF file. We use a program called Image Alchemy 
to do that. And, . . ., these are bad PDF files!!! And, because of that, 
as they're told, they're moved to a sister "badfiles" directory. So, 
they're not there to MOVE!

I'm sorry for all your time. You guys have been great.

Cheers,
Peter
