The CLOUD

Every single meeting we mention "The Cloud" but it has never been a formal topic of discussion. What do you trust on the cloud?
What do you not trust? Why?
How how the cloud made your life easier? How has it made it harder?
What criteria do you use when deciding to use cloud services?
Are there feasible alternatives to the cloud? What are their plusses and minuses?
Are IT admins who don't like the cloud dinosaurs who will be unemployed dinosaurs within a few months or years?
