I should have mentioned the other side of the argument with regard to 
enabling journaling.  If you have a UPS, you probably never have to worry 
about losing data due to a blackout.  And since OS X almost never crashes 
(I've never had a system crash/kernal panic under OS X), if you have a 
UPS journaling may be just about unnecessary.

You read about all these terrorists--most of them came here legally, but 
they hung around on these expired visas, some for as long as 10-15 years. 
Now, compare that to Blockbuster; you are two days late with a video and 
those people are all over you. Let's put Blockbuster in charge of 
immigration.
