When users stop calling their hard drive "memory" then they will be ready for the computer that's already in front of them. Baby steps, please.

The real problem is that the one man ignored the fundamentals of system administration. He was totally ignorant of what backups actually meant, was too dumb to know that he had no expertise in the administration of systems, and thus did not belong in the position he was in.

At my job we document everything. Any system that is being set up has to be reproducible according to how you originally did it. Because if they lose that system after you leave, the next person's "common sense" may take a different route, producing suboptimal results, and may just be something you would roll your eyes at. It's not always how, but why you did something, that matters.

Egads man! I would have thought you'd be mummified by now.

Or building a society that is either independent of modern technologies.
Or shielding so heavily that we become mole people.

Seriously, the zombie scenario sounds more fun.

I don't see a lot of soccer moms hauling lumber yet thee roads are full of SUVs and pickups that people bought because they want to be ram tough. Your argument applies to a very small percentage of the population.

One of the benefits of being the country that originates 99% of the content on the internet - I don't have to worry about this.
