I've long made a living by automating stuff, but I always held that
full-automation is brittle. I just noticed a sad example of this today going
over The Atlantic site.
At this link, you'll see a modest drawing in memory of Michael Kelly, the
Atlantic editor recently killed in Iraq:

Check out the 'shopping' line directly underneath:
"Click here to buy Sage, Ink cartoons on T-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, or
mousepads!"
Full-automation is a curse.
