17.01 BBC News: ANGLO-AMERICAN INITIATIVE TO PRESERVE
STEPHEN FRY AFTER DEATH. In response to predictions of a
meltdown in the “digital economy” when Stephen Fry dies, the
US Department of Homeland Security’s Janet Napolitano and
the UK Government’s Eric Pickles announced joint funding for
a competition to design what sources were calling “Fry’s
gadget death wagon”. The winning design will include a
cryogenic chamber with a special gadget-shaped pipe,
through which expensive consumer electronics will be passed
to the frozen Fry, and an exit hatch that will open to
emit what Pickles described as “Stephen’s self-disgracing
mouthy ephemera”. Yesterday’s shocking report from the Coulter Foundation
suggested that after Fry conks out Apple will lose four fifths of its
value, and that Twitter will continue not to make any money.
