Oh noes, it's also still present in all the mirrored archives as well
whatever will we do?!
Spam is going to crush us all.
OTOH, raise your hand if you own stock in a HD manufacturer!
OTGH, I worry, late at night, when the only sound to be heard is the
quiet thok of space expanding... What's to become of all these bits
and nibbles and bytes, that make up all this junk data, that people
don't delete. Will the electromagnetic spin of those storage cells
someday turn the Earth into a honking big gyroscope, spinning the
wrong way? I don't want to go flying off the planet. I like it
here, even if the air is a bit nasty. Gravity weighs me down. Do
bits have mass? Will those spammy bits someday bind together, like a
big ball of replicator goo, and sink to the core of the planet,
blowing us to smithereens? Can the iPad be used as a sled, like a
cafeteria tray? Are they compatible with alien spaceships? We have
to be careful about that - we might someday need to infect the aliens
with something more virulent than "I Love Lucy". *boink*
