For some reason, Growl crashed recently. When I noticed this and tried
to start it up again it wouldn't start (I would launch from Finder but
the icon would never appear). I opened Terminal and ran /Applications/
Growl.app/Contents/MacOS/Growl and got the following message:

}

Upon deleting notifications.history Growl opened successfully. Maybe
add a UI notification somehow when this event happens. Luckily I am a
sysadmin so I know my way around Terminal but I am sure a large
majority of users don't know how to do this.
