    People don’t realize how ephemeral information is. How much information from the internet you think will survive 200 years from now? My guess is not very much. Also all the digitized documents, which in some age they would have been on paper are now magnetic bits on a hard drive that have to be refreshed and copied for it to survive.

      On the one hand, what a tragedy. On the other hand, thank fuck.
