    Seems to me to be the digital version of the serious ailment called CRAFT that I suffer from.

      English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

              Is that supposed to be the normal progression - most people I know have been telling me my whole life that its always been my best attribute!

                DILLIGAF eh?

                I'll have to use that one more often. But I'm sure you'd respond with DILLIGAF!

                  The SETI screen saver, like ET himself, encounters difficulty calling home and despairing during an overnight run creates 312 copies of its icon in an (impressively expanded) system tray that fills half the screen.

                    I managed to decruftify from a 7 to a 3 on my home machine, but its drifting quite quickly to cruft 4

                    My work machine has stayed around a comfortable cruft force 2 with the occassional gust approaching cruft force 4.

                      I'm a partial 9. My hard drives all appear fine, but every so often my motherboard refuses to see my Iomega 12x4x32 CD-RW but one reboot later it sees it again.

                        Look, I know you think the world of me, that's understandable, you're only human, but it's not nice to call somebody "Vain"!
