A Quote...
One of the major problems we face in the 1970s is that so many computers will be built in the next decade that there will be a shortage of data to feed them.
Prof. Heinrich Applebaum, director of the Computer Proliferation Center at Grogbottom, has voiced concern about the crisis and has urged a crash program to produce enough data to get our computers through the seventies. "We didn't realize," the professor told me, "that computers would absorb so much information in such a fast period of time. But if our figures are correct, every last bit of data in the world will have been fed into a machine by Jan. 12, 1976, and an information famine will follow, which could spread across the world."
