Testimony re: flash pens

[John Creech]

So to start off a new week, one of my techs just came in with a sheepish 
grin on his face.  We got some new Flash Drives while he was on vacation 
and he took one home last Friday to check it out on his home machine. 
This is a ScanDisk Cruzer Mini 1.0 GB pen.  He was looking everywhere for 
it frantically at home yesterday.  His wife got out the clean laundry from 
the dryer ... and lo and behold, there it was freshly washed and dried. 
And it still works.  File this under innovative ways to freshen your data.
