Anyone else get this?

I have several smart playlists. 1 of them uses dates as part of its criteria. This playlist is NOT set to sync to my iPod (5G), however, it's there!

I have a smart playlist called "backup". It's just everything added to my iTunes library since the date of my last backup. With me so far?

Well, that "backup" playlist isn't supposed to sync to my iPod. It's just a tool to keep track of my backup discs.

However, there on my iPod is a playlist called backup and I can't get it to go away.

Now, it's not all that bad because it (I think) it appears that the songs on the "backup" playlist are only syncing when the songs appear in other, intended-to-be-synced playlists.

So, I'm not getting duplicates, and it's not the entire "backup" playlist that's syncing, just when songs appear on both the one using dates, and any other synced playlist.

So, it's no big deal except that I can't figure it out. Why would this playlist keep showing up on my iPod? even though I've told it not to?
