However...
On my system, the situation is reversed.

Notice that user randi only appears once in repquota -a, and the total  
is smaller than the du output.

Therefore??? du is telling me that there are files in /Users/randi  
that belong to another user???  Does that make sense?  How can we  
check that?
And checking the reverse...the output of repquota...how can we check  
the path for each file owned by user randi?

Any other scenarios that would match what's going on?
(Again..WAY TO GO, big breakthrough on what I was looking for!)
