As scripture tells us, "Just as a fly doth cause the ointment of the
apothecary to stink, so a little foolishness ruins much wisdom."

We have witnessed a fine example of this homily in the emanation of
large numbers of repetitive articles from buggy notesfiles.

To adopt Steve Nelson's simile, we notesfile nonusers got the same
feeling that we would sitting in a covered wagon, watching a Learjet
fly into a mountain.
