Barely apropos of this discussion, if anyone hasn't noticed the -h flag to
du and df (and doubtless others) this is a Very Nice Thing. The -h, if I
get it right, is "human readable" and it will adjust the block size
appropriately to the size of the result.
	Rather than explain that, it's best to just try it and see what
happens. I think you'll like it!
