The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

Did the Romans conquer and replace the Etruscans?

Yes, more or less. The Etruscans had been the dominant power in most of Italy, and then the Romans came along, and defeated them and their allies, and took over. Then, of course, the Romans went on to take over most of Europe and much of Africa, as well as the Middle East. https://www.quora.com/unanswered/Did-the-Romans-conquer-and-replace-the-Etruscans
