I don't feel terribly repentant on days when I have had to wade through 
hip-deep amounts of "crud" that resulted from "those idiots" having gotten 
onto the Internet, and due to their incapacity to manage the systems that they 
bought from Microsoft, flooded us all with crud.

Perhaps I should be sorry; I might be if there hadn't been 170MB of crud in my 
mailbox.

Back in the "old days," that would be a news feed for a whole site for a week.

Back in the "old days," I had hard drives _considerably_ smaller than that.
