This reminds me of a long debate in a cooking newsgroup, in which whiners
were complaining that Breyers had shrunk their 64 oz ice cream package. This
was portrayed as evil. Some of the idiots seemed to expect Breyer's to send
a post card to every household in America, informing them of the change.

Annoying is shrinking the packaging. Evil is reducing the contents but leaving
the package size the same in the hopes that consumers won't notice. Ice cream
falls in the annoying category. Manufacturers of tuna, potato chips and quite a
few other products fall in the evil category.
