No, you're not alone. When they offer data, a lot of us think, "Oh, goodie, some interesting data!" We hustle over there to learn something new and learn it quickly. If instead we are treated to a demonstration of javascript media virtuosity that buries the actual data too deeply to be worth extracting, we get annoyed and complain: "Where's the beef?" (But I don't think there's anybody back there[1].) [1] [VIDEO]

"Where's the vaporware? Under the pickle...." is best portrayed by the younger types. [VIDEO] You know why the food sucks so bad when you know who they are catering to :p
