With the Entire Internet a Fragile House of Cards... Will The Digital History of Our Time Exist at all? Better Make a Paper Backup Copy and Store it in a Fireproof Safe.

 Could an Evil Dictator Delete all Records Tagged: "Michael Moore" and Then Would His Work Never Have Happened? A Digital Worm Designed to Find and Delete the Word "Watergate" could Destroy Every Record of that Event Forever... What If Your Search Engine FINDS NOTHING? Except a Recipe for the Pistachio Salad?

Watergate Salad is a cool and creamy dessert salad that is a family favorite and always a hit! Loaded with pistachio pudding, pineapple, marshmallows, and pecans, this is a treat that everyone enjoys!

What If No Mention of Richard Nixon Remained after the Word Watergate Was Scrubbed From All Online Records? In the Book 1984 They Re-Wrote History Often! 

and with Terrorists Shooting Power Stations... and Causing a Week Long Power Outage by simply Pointing a Rifle at a Transformer... and Then Vanishing into the Night... How Long Before All the Power Goes Out and Billions of People Starve to Death?

When Moore County, N.C., suddenly went dark last Saturday night, Mayor Carol Haney was perplexed. There'd been no storm, no warning, just darkness on what had been a festive holiday season evening. It turned out a shooting attack on two electrical substations knocked tens of thousands of people off the grid for the better part of a week.

The CIA Tried to Delete all Paper Records of Project MKUTRA and they were 90% Successful in Destroying all Evidence of the LSD Brainwashing Experiment... However... Some Documents Were Mis-Filed and the Employees That Did the Shredding Task DID NOT FIND THEM at that time! Years Later They Surfaced in Response to John D Marks FOIA Request... Someone Had Moved them Back to the Filing Cabinet Called "M" -  With Digital Records... No One Knows Where The Data Went... Power Outages often Result in Entire Disc Drives becoming Unreadable... 

What would Happen during a Power Outage of a  Year? The Collapse of Civilization and a Thousand Year Dark Age? 

Remember: Movies are Useless Without a Movie Projector... Compact Discs are Just Shiny Plastic Without a Disc Drive to Play them On... and Computers Fail Without Electricity... 

Content Just "Vanishes" if It's Not Indexed By Google... For Example: I Have a Blog and The Vast Majority of my Posts are Deemed "Not Worthy" by Google... A Person that Wanted to Read my Words Could Never Find Them... BING has a Different Assortment of Posts Indexed but "No One" Uses BING... 4,850 Posts Published and 811 are Indexed on Google Search... 

and Whatever you Post on Social Media Seems to Vanish Very Quickly... I'm a Member of the FaceBorg Group "Things I Remember Growing Up in Los Gatos" and My Posts from 3 Months ago are Impossible to Find... So Whenever I Write Something of Value... I Make a Copy and Post it on gvan42.blogspot.com... and a Couple of other Mirror Blogs...

I Make Multiple Copies because Former Websites I Built Just Vanished When the Businesses Decided that They Weren't Making Money on the Free Website Business... Yahoo Geocities, Tripod and Microsoft Free Websites Vanished Completely... They Did Give Me Six Months to Copy and Paste my Words and Pictures to another Site... But They Just Made a Decision to Stop Wasting Money on That Idea... 

I just Made Prints of a Couple of Drawings I Did... and They are Now Posted on the Wall of My Home... After I Die, Maybe my family will keep these Drawings in the Shoebox of Family Photographs! 

and then on FaceBorg I Read: 

I read not just one but two novels recently that involved Ouija boards magically getting people in touch with the spirit world. It was a 2003 episode of "Penn & Teller: Bull----!" that demonstrated the unpalatable truth: All you have to do is blindfold the two people with their fingers on the planchet and let an observer read the planchet's answers, which will look as though a drunken mouse with its tail dipped in ink staggered across the Ouija board.

and I Replied:

I will NOT Play with those devices because they are SCARY... They are Likely to be FAKE but if They are Real, I don't want anything top do with them... I Reject Tarot Cards for the Same Reason...

In the Sci-Fi Novel "The Man in the High Castle" by Philip K Dick... The Characters Throw the I Ching to Help them Make Decisions... The Author Also Threw the I Ching while Writing those Scenes to Help him decide the Direction of the Plot... That's Pretty Dang Clever! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_in_the_High_Castle

and she replied:

In one of his more readable novels, I think "Stranger in a Strange Land," Robert A. Heinlein suggested that things like Tarot cards, the I Ching, astrology, reading tea leaves, etc, don't have magic powers in and of themselves; they're just tools for people who have ESP to focus their insights. All of them offer multiple interpretations. Did you make that mistake yesterday because Mercury was retrograde, your Tarot card was the Hanged Man, you misinterpreted the yarrow stalks, or the Amazing Randi predicted you would? Or maybe it was just (gasp!) a mistake?

and I said:

The only thing I remember about Stranger was The Water Ceremony... Sharing water was a sacred ritual that bonded the people together... and then I read that at Burning Man there is a Water Sharing Ritual... for the same reason... Mars was a Desert and So is Northern Nevada!
