Picture a robust pendrive...


The little fellow pictured above survived a complete wash and spin cycle in my washing machine (an ageing BPL top loading model, but a working piece, nevertheless). I let the poor thing dry out a bit and plugged it into my laptop... lo and behold... everything was intact and working as it always had. I am impressed; no, very very impressed. But would have been even more so if I had some file of life-and-death importance on that drive and nowhere else. As it happens, most of the content was useless PPTs and half baked commercial models in XL :)

Wouldn't you prefer to think that if the pen drive had such important files, you would prefered some other way to clean it?
