 * A couple of times now I’ve lost some draft posts and I can’t figure out what’s
   going on. When I’m viewing my list of draft posts in wp-admin I see two counts
   for total number of posts.
 * Towards the top left it says:
 * All(139) | Published(14) | Drafts(125) | Trash(2)
 * But then when I click the Drafts(125) link to view my drafts, over on the right
   near the pagination nav it says “119 items”. And sure enough there are only 119
   draft posts.
 * When I look at the database via myPHP Admin there are 125 draft posts.
 * Where are the other 6 draft posts and why aren’t they showing up in the list 
   in wp-admin? Why would the list in wp-admin show two different counts?

 * I think I may be on to something. I’m using the Admin Columns plugin and when
   I made a change to the visible columns, my missing posts came back.
 * I suspect this has something to do with that plugin.
