Well, trying to salvage things, but it isn't looking good. Had Westhost first roll back the database to a previous backup and that didn't fix it. Meanwhile, webforming back and forth with movabletype support, but they basically said, "well, you're hosed." The had Westhost roll the entire site back but still no love. Then I tried playing some games with uninstalling and reinstalling the db, adding certain tables, etc. Came so close, but alas, couldn't pull it off. Have to sleep on it, but I'm not happy.
