I prefer how the R mailing list works: No attachments of any kind and no
HTML messages allowed. Just plain text email. If someone needs to supply
something too large for a single email, they must put it on a Web site
(such as GitHub, for example) and then include a URL for that. That is: (1)
much safer for all; (2) saves bandwidth for uninterested users; (3) save
space on the various archives. Yes, this is very "retro" of me. And only a
personal opinion, not a commandment from on high.

Werner Heisenberg is driving down the autobahn. A police officer pulls

were going?"
"No," replies Dr. Heisenberg, "but I know where I am."

Schrodinger's backup: The condition of any backup is unknown until a
restore is attempted.
He's about as useful as a wax frying pan.
