Heh! So that's how they do it.

Reminds me of an anecdote. While re-organizing my home office the other
day, and trying like hell to throw away useless crap despite my pack-rat
nature, I came across a CD containing --- Windows 98! Reflexively, I tried
to think of an excuse to keep it. After meditating on this question for
two seconds I threw it in the trash.
