Actually, I believe that's a corrolary to Parkinson's Law which I
misquote as "Work expands to fill the time available."  Anyone
interested in dry wit with a sting in the tail, accompanied by
extremely acerbic drawings, see C. Northcote Parkinson, _Parkinson's
Law_ and _The Law and the Profits_.  Both illustrated by Robert
Osborne.
