___More wash for your "woop". Remember how high tech NU was with those washing machines you could pay for with your husky debit card ? I guess now the new thing is "eSuds". IBM came out with this thing at BC where kids can check on a website to see if a washing machine in their dorm is empty, instead of walking all the way down to the basement. Then you can add fabric softener from your room, instead of doing it while you're down there. Then it tells you when it's done. Seems like a good idea. PROs: Not having to sit around waiting in the laundry room all day, reading last week's NU NEWS that you found on the floor and listening to the banging sounds of sexual whatnot in the next door janitor's closet. CONs: Less revinue for janitor closet prostitutes. Less readership for NU news. Some hacker kids are gonna get into this and lock up all the machines in protest until the school succumb to their demands.posted by Adam 9/04/2002 11:28:00 AM
