Blowing away the database does indeed seem to fix the problem, but it doesn't exactly make me feel warm and cozy. I have no idea how the database got screwed up, so I don't know what to avoid doing so that I don't have this happen again on a production server. I never had any other nodes, so it has nothing to do with adding or removing nodes. I guess I just cross my fingers and hope it doesn't happen again.

Does nodetool status show only one node ?
