ID Ten T

No...this wasn't me!



As Silver Surfers know sometimes we have trouble with our computers. I had a problem yesterday so I called Eric, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over.

Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.

As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong?'

He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'

I didn't want to appear stupid but nonetheless inquired, 'An ID ten T error? What's that in case I need to fix it again?'

Eric grinned....

'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?'

'No,' I replied.

'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'

So I wrote it down.....ID10T

I used to like Eric, the little jerk.

He could have said it was an 12-18 problem ...




... the problem is 12-18 inches in front of the keyboard.

I learned the word "GIGO" in my first computer class in 1983.
