Red Warrior's Journal: QOTD

Just finished my weeky project status meeting (11:30 - make your meetings just before lunch, and it's easier to stay on-agenda :->) with the contractors. Reading through one of their weekly status reports (due 30 min before the meeting, to give me time to scan & highlight anything that looks odd), and came across the following:

"There are [location] existing tests that appear to test the various message reading classes we are modifying. Unfortunately, they depend on data that no longer exists, configuration lore that is still being recovered...

Configuration Lore.
Phrase of the day. :-D

Only in the IT Industry...

...Will you find the term "lore" used with any seriousness. Haha...You've made my day.

I'm training three new guys on some of our systems at work (before I move on to an engineering role). I need to find a way to integrate that phrase into the discussion...
