> Recently one of my friends, a computer wizard, paid me a visit. I mentioned
that I had
recently installed Windows on my PC, told him how happy I was with this
operating system
and showed him the Windows CD. To my astonishment and distress he threw it into my
micro-wave oven and turned it on.
> I was upset because the CD had become precious to me, but he said "Do not
worry, it is
unharmed." After a few minutes he took the CD out, gave it to me and said "Take
a close
look at it."
>
> To my surprise the CD was quite cold and it seemed to have become thicker and
heavier than
before. At first I could not see anything, but on the inner edge of the central
hole I saw
an inscription, in lines finer than anything I have ever seen before. The
inscription
shone piercingly bright, and yet remote, as if out of a great depth.
