At the risk of flogging a dead horse, one final word. It seems 
certain that I had one or more corrupted DNG files that got messed up 
when reading the SD card. Because deleting the good files from the 
card was a hassle because it had to be done in the camera--I deleted 
the bad ones from the hard disk negs and then re-imported from the 
SD--I will in future do as you do and as Nathan suggested and go from 
SD to hard disk and them import from the latter.
