Sorry to hear the bad news but at least you found out the problem. My father
always told me the experience is the best teacher. I have learned many
lessons the hard way, at least I can say I will never do what I learned the
hard way ever again.

Unfortunately, this is exactly what I did. :-(  So, adding a 1 dollar
part is now going to get more expensive.  At a minimum, I'm going to
have to get the rotor turned.  I probably should replace the pads
also, given that they have been used backwards against their design. 
I'm sure they aren't as structurally sound now.

Thanks,
Bryan
