Disappearing ACL

[browe-tfx]

I have a 2911 router where I was configuring the device t allow remote desktops connections. Everything is working properly, but for some reason my ACL has disappeared. Has anyone ever experienced this before!?!?!

so if you do a show access-lists there is nothing there ?   Never heard of that unless you configured it and the box got relooaded without you saving it .   On the new IOS versions for some reason cisco felt it neccessary to move the acl's from the bottom of the config to the top .

when I do a sh access-lists all I get is

access-list 1 permit 10.10.18.0 0.0.0.255

access-list 1 remark NAT LIST

access-list 21 remark remark Access-List to provide Telnet into router from Internal IP

access-list 21 permit 10.10.18.0 0.0.0.255 log

There was a power outage in the building earlier, and the other engineer who use to deal with the routers has told me he didn't do a wr mem. But after the power outage I do recall still seeing the access lists and even when I added new access-lists before posting they were wiped without reloading. I will defintely keep an eye on it, I'm hopinh I haven't been staring at my monitors to long.
