This is most humorous ;^). You should post this to rec.humor. But you
left out the smilies.
It is especially funny to think of the billions of dollars everyone is
spending collectively on computing hardware, when all that is ever
accomplished is errors ;^). Seems like after a while we would all
realise that nothing is being generated except errors, and we would
all take up basket weaving ;^).
