Regular expressions are among my most valued tools, along with goto, eval, multiple inheritance, preemptive multithreading, floating point, run-time type identification, a big knife, a bottle of bleach, and 120VAC electricity. All of these things suck sometimes.

The most successful projects I've seen and been on did rewrite all the code routinely, but one subsystem at a time. This happens when you're tempted to add a hack, realize it wouldn't be needed if an entire area were reworked, and mgmt is bright enough to realize that hacks compound in fatal ways over time. The "ain't broke, don't fix" philosophy is a good guide here, provided you've got a very low threshold for insisting "it's broke".
