My thought process on the try block (and similar): if something or someone
outside of my control can affect the state of my program I am going to try and
catch that exception. So, when dealing with a file system who knows what could
happen! After all, we are trying to move obsolete files that may have been
downloaded months or years ago... who KNOWS where they are now, or what they've
been named. We are just calculating their SUPPOSED path and filename. If we had
just done a directory walk and found all files matching a regex expression,
that might be a different matter. Anyway, that's the logic! :-)
