And you trust the Internet since when..?

... Well, ever since the Floppy got out of fashion, and I nevertheless decided to keep it closest to my heart, and it cheated on me. I trust the Internet only because I trust the Floppy's even less. Those plastic bastards! They break, they stuck, they make themselves unaccessable. So... Now I email my thesis to myself after a days work. I think it is very safe in my inbox, and if I made my backup in the computer, the lightning would strike our house, setting it on fire (see earlier post on force majeaure) and my thesis would be gone forever. USB memories, by the way, are for modern cowards.

It struck me how creepy it is that I have created something so important (for my own future). After all, I have written over 20 pages and today I hit the magic footnote-number 100. I don't think I have ever written anything so extensive, and the worst thing is that in reality it does not really exist beacuse there are no print-outs.
