Re:The site got slashdotted

On: Google Mirror Beats the Great Firewall of China

Depends on your interpretation of 'several'.

Here's one (only works with fixed-width font though):

• Set up a grid of tiny mirrors, equal to the grid of character cells on your screen.
• Turn each mirror so that it takes the character cell from a position on the screen inverse to its own position in the grid, and bounces the image directly forward.
• Place one large mirror on top of your screen, facing you.

Voila! Reverse order without reversing character glyphs. (Technically reverse characters twice, screen only once.)

I don't know what Tron you've been watching, but in MY copy the Master Control Program speaks several times of its links to other corporate computers. (And how it "steals" from them all the other programs it has captured and assimilated)
