ID ten T

As we Silver Surfers know,sometimes we have trouble with our computers. I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over.


Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.


As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong ?  He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'


I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired,


'An, ID ten T error ? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.'


Eric grinned....


'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before ?


'No,' I replied.


'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.' So I wrote down:


ID10T


I used to like Eric, but now.......
