    Heh, true.  Thing is, when I posted originally, I wasn't joking.  I just
got private email from someone complaining about my "anti-emacs fanatisism"
and yet he included a ps line with emacs19 weighing in at 7344k!  I wasn't
joking when I said "Eight Megs and Constantly Swapping."  The one time I did
load emacs20 it was 8Mb+.
