FF: Where Can I get me one of them Archives Droids?
Title: RE: Jocast Nu has no action figure :((
Ahhh!~ Archive
DROIDS...a great idea but, noting the salary ranges for archivists,
they'll
never get the cost down low enough to undersell a human.
Although if the
DROIDS are a part of an IT budget, I am sure the money will be found by any
means necessary, because it involves computery-type do-hickeys which do
something that will "increase our on-line
presence."
Hail to
humans! Although the things I could do with an Archives
droid.....
Specs for the
archives droid? hmmm
24/7 processing
prowess!
"Hands of
silk" with no messy human secretions! Featuring the Four Fingers of
Preservation 1) deacidification sprayer finger, 2) vacuum finger, 3)#1 pencil finger, 4)
fine brush finger Also, if you act now you get
the...
freeze drier in
belly,
OCR/ICR
eyes,
acid free
paper/folder dispenser,
the charm of
James Bond to get the "holy grail collection,"
a pillowy
posterior so that the anterior interface is protected from marathon processing
sessions,
the "I love my
job and who needs money to do this?" (tm) smile and
finally an
ATM!
Lucas would have
to give it a code: CAD-PFA Droid: Collect Arrange Describe
Publish Finding Aid

At
least they had a live staff! I thought at first, watching the movie,
that we'd be treated to an "archives" staffed by droids.
