That's appreciated, but I think what's needed more is someone who actually
wants to undertake this project. It's not just a matter of running a small
script for hours -- someone will have to come up with a way to fuzz that is
actually useful for this particular situation (inserting random characters
in files isn't going to be very effective). If someone wants to give that a
try I'm sure they'd be delighted to use up the rest of your AWS budget. :-)
