Default TJ's Onc noid

I got this plant in '05 when I was just starting to (attempt to) grow orchids. Its the plant that maybe kept me trying, as for a couple of years it was the only one to bloom for me - and boy did it bloom! The last time it bloomed - 2 summers ago - had 7 spikes in 4" pot.
Then, last spring, it took a sudden and quick turn downhill. I had to cut off most of the plant and was left with 3 pbulbs, two of those leafless and not looking so great, and no roots!
Fortunately I had just been reading "Orchids for Dummies" and remembered the part about possibly saving plants with a plant 'incubator' - I used an old small fish tank. New growth and new roots appeared quite quickly.
It's much much smaller than it was (the new growth - only one pbulb, is much smaller than the previous growth)
But yet it has graced me with a pretty nice spike
Color seems more intense than previous years - maybe due to regular fert ? Faint vanilla-y fragrance.
Thanks for looking
