It only attests to the Buddhist philosophy of the 
"Impermanence of All Things"

Ain't it funny how we have come to believe in the permanence of data
written on something as slippery and  impermanent as a hard disk?  An
Archive? If you were to break one of those suckers open, you could not
even scrape off the ones and zeros onto a clean sheet of paper and hire
zealots to piece them together like the contents of a paper shredder.
Ten year old information?, lets see, that stuff was on the machine that
died in '97 or was it '86 and on the old Kaypro II ?  I have an old,
solid aluminum, portable Kaypro with a huge 16 MB hard drive, wonder
what's on that disc?
