GIGO

   1.  `Garbage In, Garbage Out' -- usually said in response to {luser}s
   who  complain  that  a program didn't "do the right thing" when given
   imperfect  input  or  otherwise mistreated in some way. Also commonly
   used  to  describe  failures  in human decision making due to faulty,
   incomplete, or imprecise data.

   2.  Garbage  In, Gospel Out: this more recent expansion is a sardonic
   comment  on  the tendency human beings have to put excessive trust in
   `computerized' data.
