Computer says...

I'm old enough to remember a world without computers, and very definitely without the internet.  So perhaps as a result I am in awe of what computers can do but equally very cautious of placing any blind reliance on them to get the job done. And every now and again something happens which reinforces that belief.  Like the story of the flight from Sydney which was scheduled to go to Malaysia, but thanks to an incorrect computer input ended up in Melbourne.  A good example of what we used to refer to as GIGO - garbage in, garbage out.
