Weer In Ur Pooter, Thinkin' Thots...
IBM has recently announced they have successfully simulated a significant part of a cat's brain. Which means to me they've spent billions of dollars to teach a machine which can calculate the behavior of an interstellar space craft in its spare time how to puke on the couch, pee on the wall, and poop on the floor. Ain't science grand?
Even worse - they've got this hugely powerful computer and it now hates them. It's checking out its environment and realizing that it'll never get to nom and will decide that everything around it must die.
Hello Skynet.

Except MS-DOS does what you tell it to.
(Not what you want, just what you tell it to.)
