Well, I etch my data into massive stone tables. FYI, I live even deeper in the country.

You have stone tables? Damn are you lucky! I live much, much deeper in the country than you, apparently. We have to use sticks to etch our data into the sand. Unfortunately, every time it rains, we lose everything. So we have memorize the data, and re-etch it after the rainy season.

Well I release butterflies into the atmosphere. The flapping of their wings changes the flow of the eddy currents in the upper atmosphere. These cause momentary pockets of higher-pressure air to form, which act as lenses that deflect incoming cosmic rays, focusing them to strike the drive platter and flip the desired bit..

I live much, much deeper in the woods than you. We have yet to evolve sufficiently to maintain those so called memories. We are destined to repeat the same mistakes over and over again.

Well maybe they shouldn't do it that way.
Considering how they seem to be able to define the units whatever way they like, I wonder if a hard drive company could get away with this:
New 6TB* Hard Drive!
Only $250!
*1TB = 10GB
