Monkey surfing

I have been sounded out about doing something for Learning at Work Day, specifically something with Powershell, maybe just a couple of useful short one-liners. Having given it some thought, I did realise that an easier introduction, assuming that the audience are not completely petrified of a any sort of CLI, would be to demo that anything you currently do from command prompt you can also done from a Powershell prompt.
But then the realisation hit me that if someone checks my blog they will learn of what is in-store and then not bother showing up when I run my session! The reason for my fear was based on the Infinite Monkey Theorem: given the amount of non-work related surfing done here would it be inevitable that staff may eventually come across my not-so-publicised blog? But my fears were then allayed, to stumble upon this would mean that they would have to tear themselves away from Facebook first....
