I became an accomplished scientist this morning. Several days ago, I had a theory. Even though, at the time, I did not know I had a theory. The theory was stated thusly -
A thumb drive will survive a trip through the washer and dryer, and still function properly.
So I put the theory to the test. But again, at the time, I did not know that I had a theory, or that I was putting the theory to the test.
This morning, I opened my dryer, and began putting my clothes away. I heard a rattle of something as I was pulling out an article of clothing. Upon further investigation, I discovered the thumb drive. I immediately dismissed the mishap, and tossed the drive in the trash.
It was then that I remembered the theory. So I pulled the thumb drive out of the trash, and popped it into a USB port in my laptop. Plink ... light ... data. My theory was proven. So here is the fact, proven by the scientific experiment of the Accidental Geek.
You can indeed send your thumb drive through the washer and dryer, and still have a functioning thumb drive.
Oh, by the way, here is a new image I created. What does this image have to do with my proven theory? Absolutely nothing. But it made it past the editor (that's me) :-)
