Thanks Eli, that's good to know.

I had never really looked at the keyboard settings but I just popped 
them up and noticed these three things:  (1) The only choices for input 
locales were french (I have no idea why) and english (US).  (2) The 
'system tray indicator' check box wasn't selected which is why there was 
no language indication in my system try.  (3) The key combo to switch 
locales is Left-Alt + Shift which I could easily imagine my 
inadvertently keying while using emacs.

So, I'm pretty sure that Drew was right and now I know how to fix it. 
Thanks to both of you.
