To set the record straight, the lists weren't posted illegally; however, the
*writers* on Late Night have requested that the lists not be reprinted,
since they stand to make something off the sales of the books.  I've decided
to honor those requests, and have refrained from posting any more.

I can't see what special dispensation talk.lists would grant the posting of
the Top 10 Lists, but then I'm just a humble-yet-lovable shoe-shine boy.
(No, wait, that's someone else...)

                            DAVE BARRY'S 1989 IN REVIEW -- August 12th
                               "The federal government, finally fed up with
                                the savings and loan industry's appalling
                                stupidity, irresponsibility, corruption and
                                greed, gives it several hundred billion
                                taxpayer dollars. 'And there's plenty more
                                where that came from,' the government
                                warns."
