What I was doing: log onto my machine (system run level 5, I log out, NOT just lock the screen, every single night; therefore, there should be no processes running owned by me), and in a terminal window, do ssh-agent ssh-add .ssh/private key and enter my passphrase. Then I'd go through the day merrily on my way.
Now, I find that when I log out, ssh-agent IS NOT STOPPED, even though

<snip> 9:09 or so was when I used ssh-add. Note that ssh-agent has been running since the second, and I logged out Friday and yesterday.
So you have 2 different instances running?
Y'know, that's an interesting question, and one I didn't think of. Thing is, I did *not* run ssh-agent when I was logging on this morning, *all* I did was ssh-add. Checking my history, I'm sure of this course of events. I just grepped, as well, and nothing in my . files runs it, nor does anything in /etc/profile or /etc/profile.d.
