If your assumption were true (that the extracts were made directly from 
the first planet) then your procedure would make you miss the very first 
diff because using 001.state.txt as your starting point means "I already 
have this state" rather than "I still need to apply the 001 diff".

However, the first set of extracts was started from the initial planet 
plus about a day's worth of diffs so you'd be clean with your approach - 
you'd be applying a little too much diffs but that doesn't hurt. Sadly I 
don't have the *exact* starting state.txt file. If you want to start 
from the next set of extracts, which will be uploaded tomorrow morning, 
you could use this:

#Sat Sep 15 20:51:11 CEST 2012
sequenceNumber=4879
timestamp=2012-09-15T18\:47\:02Z
