Hahaha. I love it. Sadly, I can't count how many times I've seen that in the literature and the web...
Can you imagine, a steam-powered Internet? I'm picturing millions of oompa loompa's underground, turning large crank gears.

Though I just read a blurb about Ebsco and a number of big name periodicals being kind of exclusive all the sudden. I'm losing track now that I'm out of the library. :-/
Oh my goodness! I thought I was alone here. Good thing I didn't post that "True Confessions of a Middle Aged Slacker" tell-all I was working on. Glad to know you both are still alive and (hopefully) well.
Surprise! :)
