Duh!!! To press SysRq I have to push the blue function key (Fn) BUT the
K key also has a blue '2' on it!!!
I found on Google that once you have pushed the SysRq key you can
release the Fn key and then press the command key.
This works everytime! My finger must have slipped off the fn key
earlier, which is why I couldn't replicate it. Anyway, it retriggered
the nightmares of using emacs. :-(
