IT

Tell me this: is IT a hoax, or the real thing? This was the first I’d heard about it. er, sorry, IT. Seems like a well-orchestrated prank to my ears… though some believe otherwise. Since I first wrote this Ping, links and articles and possible drawings of IT have been everywhere. The consensus, if there can be one, seems to be that it is a personal transportation device which may or may not be on wheels, but will have such an impact that it will change everything.

But, a part of me is hoping it’s a toaster. -pm
