Heirarchy

*Teddy bursting into post-apocalyptic bunker, holding an external hard drive* TEDDY: "Alright, I got it!" ALLISON: "What's that?" ~ TEDDY:"A couple of years ago I added this baby to my apocalypse preparedness plan." ALLISON: "An external hard drive? That's the 'magic bullet' you just risked your life to save?" ~ TEDDY: "Touche. Granted it's a simple enough piece of hardware, but the real beauty of this guy is the ALGORITHM behind it. Once I realized how dependent we were becoming on the internet, I figured it'd be a good bet to have a hard back up of at least the most important bits for just such a rainy day. This baby has been trawling the web non-stop building a database of skills and resources we don't even know we'll need yet, always learning and evolving, using metrics like peer review and breadth of research & knowledge base to constantly prioritize and pull the most PRESSINGLY important information. This thing will be able to teach us things that weren't even invented when I plugged it in. What do you say? Should we see what we've got?" ~ ALLISON: *seeing Teddy's horrified expression* "What? What is it" TEDDY: "...Cats... It's all just...CATS..."

Rule number 1 of the internet: It ALWAYS comes back to cats...

...But hey, at least if they can survive till the rise of a new society, he'll be the most powerful man in the world when 'cat videos' inevitably emerge as the eminent currency...
