I've got a script that's not behaving itself. I know it's something
silly, but I can't figure it out.  The script is just a for loop that
runs through a text file list of files (/directory/filename format) and
does an 'ls' on each one.  The problem is, I /want/ the script to NOT
find those files, i.e., those files shouldn't be there.  That part
works, but I can't dump the output of that into a text file.

Basically ls dumps all the 'file or directory not found' straight to the
console and not to the text file when I redirect output to it:

./missingfiles.sh > testfile.txt

I get this output:

ls: cannot access /home2/test/20070829/KVNX20070829_225943_744_3.bz2: No
such file or directory

to the console and not the text file.  How do I fix that?
