Inside the computer I'm writing this on, there's a book I'm currently
finishing. (There are also some identical copies on disks and other
machines, but let's pretend they don't exist because I was too stupid to
back the files up.)

Someone comes into my house and trashes the hard drive, folds, spindles and
mutilates it, fubars the fucker.

Why should I care? To some extent the patterns in the book can be found all
around us. The words are in the dictionary. Many of the phrases have been
uttered before, and who knows, might be uttered again. The universe goes
on, and life
continues, although mine is totally down the toilet for a while. The book
is the only thing that has vanished. And after all, who cares about a book
or the months of effort frozen into it?
