    This is why it's so critically important that folks begin to
study the history of computing.  We've already come full-circle
on many fronts, and it's rather clear on some of those that we've
learned nothing at all from those who have gone before.  Although,
it is rather fun to see some of the newbies (and their managers)
jump down the same ratholes some of us had to climb out of in years
gone by.
