You _might_ type:

   make convert

But instead, please type:

   make BABASE_DB=babase_copy convert

to load the babase_copy database.  A plain
"make convert" will convert into the babase_test
database, but I have stuff there and in the babase
database that I might want.  So, for now please use
the babase_copy database.
