If I feeling more frivolous, I'd be counting how many panels of the webcomic we'd ticked off already in this post.

But the fact that it's all so familiar is just dispiriting. Is the needle on the bigmassivehuge internet harddisk at CERN just skipping every couple of months?

I have to keep reminding myself "better than a hundred years ago", because the internet is not offering any sense of progress, of forward momentum, of learning.

Bleargh.

More kittens please.
