        I know that some time some where, I spent some
        time writing about 5-10 paragraphs about wiki + IRC.    (01)

        I am sure that I put it into my file system. 
        I am sure that it is in the last 6 months.    (02)

        And here I sit wishing for a few features on my file system.    (03)

        I wish I could click recent changes, and see 
        what files were changed and then walk back until I found
        the file.    (04)

        Or that I had a quick and effective search tool.    (05)

        foreach i ( `ls -R` )
        grep irc $i
        end    (06)

        IE (find -.... )    (07)

        Just seems far too cumbersome.    (08)

        If my file system were a wiki, I would have found
        the writing by now.    (09)
