Now try it 'with invisibles'. I think you'll get a lot more of them. So
there now appear to be two types of invisible folders in OS X: invisible
folders that not invisible, and invisible folders that are invisible.
Evidently AppleScript, or the OS, has a different definition of invisible to
"not visible on the screen". Interesting.
