help (addidas-net or sneaker-net)

[Elizabeth J. McKenty a.k.a. Lisle]

Oh blast from the past. Sneakernet is when you save data to a floppy (5-1/4", please!), then walk across the office/building/campus in your sneakers to another computer where you retrieve the data! I think it's still the most reliable of networks, though support is shoddy (tee hee). OK, that's enough silliness this Monday morning in Philadelphia.
