That's definitely not good.  I'm running XEmacs at the moment, and it
is 13Mb big.  (But I did enter a virtual group with 4000 articles a
few minutes ago.)

It's from a short story by Janet Frame.  She's visiting some natural
history museum which has an exhibition on the human heart.  She stands
around listening to a guide explain something else to a bunch of
school children for too long, and she has to rush to catch a train, so
she doesn't have time to do the human heart exhibition.

Aren't you glad you asked?  :-)
