This seems to be a looping problem. All the government can think about is the last attempt, only backwards.

Even more of note is they appear to be looking at the last attempts which _didn't_ work and make changes to try and prevent it occurring again.

It appears the mountains float due to having the unobtainum inside them and the area having a strong magnetic field (hence the screwed up avionics). Whereas the location of the tree has just the former so no floating.

P.S. The firefox dictionary seems to lack 'unobtainium'.

It probably is a valid excuse if you have 20,000 client machines connecting locally via ethernet from a B class subnet such that the arp tables on the server keep overflowing.

Of course if you, as a system administrator ever let such an environment be setup you probably are really good at excuses anyway.

Comment Re:The main rule (Score 2, Interesting) 410

I worked for a company that built label printers. They conveniently placed an automatic label printer at every fridge. You pressed a button, and a label would print out with an expiration date. Anything past expiration or without a label was tossed daily.

How did the printer know what the expiry date should be? Or was it always just one week hence or the like?
