You know, it's really not nice to do this sort of thing at the end of a 
long, hard week. I have had enough trouble keeping my sanity the past few 
day, this sort of thing doesn't help.

I just sat down and saw a message about Volvos in my sun-rescue folder and 
said, "Fscking mail client, can't even sort my mail right... Why is it 
putting mail from the Volvo 1800 list in with sun-rescue!?"

And then I realized I was witnessing the mailing list cross-over of the 
century. Good thing nobody mentioned the 1800 yet or I'd be in a mental 
institution right now.
