Conjure up for a minute what life would be without Cyberspace.Would we be able to cope with its disappearance ; can the money markets  survive ; will society as we know it be thrown into chaos ? Let's think about it..it may one day go down for 48 hours....no worst case scenarios.

I was joking in the last post.  

I personally could live without the internet for 48 hours or even a week, but there would be a slight problem with earning income since everything I do that generates income involves computers or the internet.  Without the internet, I would have to figure out some other way to make a living.

Aroused from a drunken stupor I opened my eyes to see a towering silhouette
of a being covered in a ghoulish scarlet robe that covered the feet. There
was no visible face as two holes in a clanish hood were all that gave the
feeling that the  firey beams behind them were eyes. I had by this time
wet my pants and out of fear queried:'Who the hell are You.' A voice, the
frequency of which, resonated in every bone and sinew of my wretched being
slowly said :' I am the Apha and the Omega..I am, the great Eraser.'

Still numbed and barely audible I asked : 'Eraser for what?' IT now spoke
for the second time : You have tinkered with little specks of plastic and
metal and have made rudimentary computers..yes, your playthings of the
present and future. Lest you go too far I have been sent by the Lord of
Seagate to erase every bit of data stored on these childish things where
ever they are found.' Still slightly audible I asked: 'when ?'The reply
was :' now and for ever more.'

I am now fully sober..I shall have a change of pants..the message is clear..
the Eraser is at work...I thought for a moment to Backup my 4 gig hard
drive and send it far far away for storage..it's no use..I don't know if
this message will even get through..adios.

You are mean scrolljoe.

Summoning the Great Eraser is a Grave Error.

With all due respect to the Warrant Officer..I would never summon The Great Eraser..He appeared to me in a vision while I was under the influence.....

That's okay, Mate.  There's plenty of rum to go around. Now swab the deck before ye have another vision.

Battle of the sexes? 

I think I need to modify the forum to show people's sexes (for those who wish to reveal it).

Many of us are..No Problem..Don't ask Don't Tell. That's the beauty of cyberspace.Good for the military..good for cyberspace.
