From the 1982 Apple IIe reference manual, p.250:
“ write-only memory: A form of computer memory into which information can be stored but never, ever retrieved, developed under government contract in 1975 by Professor Homberg T. Farnsfarfle. Farnsfarfle’s original prototype, approximately one inch on each side, has so far been used to store more than 100 trillion words of surplus federal information. Farnsfarfle’s critics have denounced his project as a six-million-dollar boondoggle, but his defenders point out that this excess information would have cost more than 250 billion dollars to store in conventional media.”
Well, there you have it! The precursor to Lois Lerner’s hard drives and every storage media that ever held anything incriminating about powerful Democrats or campaign fraud by Democrats.
That’s not very convincing.
