I occasionally do something stupid like hit the wrong keystroke, usually
C-e, which puts me at the end of the line.  I was somewhat sure there
was an equally simple keystroked to return me to where I once was
where.  NO!?  If not, I'm bummed.  I thought emacs was "powerful".
Seems a simple function.  And by GOD, can't let vi outdo on this!
