One of these days, after I retire, and learn how to write, one of my projects is to write a science fiction story. The only way to assure archving digital files is to launch them on the Universal Internet. Imagine store-and-forward relays, repeating the learned lessions of civilizations across millions of light years... Only trick is, must discover the modulation and encoding format before creating the Higgs Boson artificially in the lab, and collapsing this region of space time. Definitely going to have to check out these Delkin's eFilm Archival Gold CD-R discs. Already what I stored during the 90's is obsolete. Can still read it, but so severely compressed that it's no longer satisfying. Was painful, and lost detail, converting from my old Macintosh MacDraw formats to Windows. Paper! Paper is good!
