It shouldn't surprise you. Just go back and read yesterday's list traffic. 
Take notice of how many people (on this list no less!) were apparently 
blissfully unaware that there was a vulnerability in the first place, much 
less knew what the symptoms were. Many of these people appear to be the 
very folks charged with maintaining systems and networks. How could they 
not know?
