Seems ridiculously dangerous to me, but I'll bite.....
I would've used some variant of `find /media/whatever -type f -exec
chmod a+rw {} \;` or some variant of `chown $(whoami)`, rather than
enabling execution on arbitrary files.
The aforementioned command would work, but seems a bit drastic: like
using a sledge-hammer to drive in a thumb-tack.
