Re: Can this be saved?
I'll definitely do that, Steve. But meanwhile we'll all age several months, I guess 
And I'll be continuing to repot all my cacti that appear to be suffocating in my old mixes. In explaining it to all my friends, I tell them that cacti with roots in heavy, compacted soil are starved for oxygen like we would be if someone were sitting on our chest.

Catch a falling star--but don't try it with a cactus!
