Long posts was: breastle screen for HLA Adventure 871

Wonderful. Not my bits are distributed globally and not locally. Now I have to depend on all kinds of comm systems being up in order to retrieve one iota of knowledge.

An extreme single point failure in our global network systems is that everybody is buttuming that google will and can continue to function as the world's repository of ASCII ships. In case you haven't noticed, the company is incorportated (I think that is the word) and is listed on the stock exchange. This means that its tail is getting wagged by people who have absolutely no interest in ASCII preservation bits...if they even know that a thingie called ASCII exists.

Take a very good look at the contents of some of the posts in this newsgroup. Kids are not getting taught the existence of ASCII, let alone what it means and how to read it. EVerything to a kid nutured on PCs is a screen, a TV show. data

You can't handle what I post here. You would never be able to handle what I've written privately.

Honey, we were shipping sources before Linus got toilet trained. (I think he's that young.)

I am not asking for help solving my problems. I am documenting the problems that are going to be f***ing serious in a few years, if not sooner. Scientists and profs are beginning to have retrieval problems. How long before this happens in the business world and then the general population?
