Will it still work if my yogurt was too hot fo too long?

So for my first time making yogurt, my cooler got too hot while my want to be yogurt sat in there. Does anyone think that I could start over with it using the same milk, but using more starter? I might just try it.

I don't know Schuyler it depends on whats growing in the milk I suppose. The thing is...the milk is a medium. And if one thing isn't growing in there, something else is. If a non-yogurt-ish caste of bacteria has already taken hold, you might get strange(not necessarily bad) results. How hot was 'too hot'?
