    It's all fun and games till some jackass hides a virus on it. That said, that could be a really good way for some spies to make a dead drop.

    @Jesus Diaz: Many people have firewalls but do not have autorun disabled. By plugging in a USB device, you circumvent the firewall and may allow a virus to autoinstall itself. While on the internet you have the threat of drive by malware/viruses/spyware, there are ways to prevent it. This is just a little less secure. I know you run OS X and don't care, but for people who are running Windows, especially XP, it could pose some security problems.

    Judging from the souvenirs left on some public couches I've seen, I'd hate to think of what you might find left on the drive.

    Raises the possibility that you could get an STD and a computer virus, just from sitting on a couch.

    Couldn't they have called it Log Light? Stump Light sounds awful (plus as this is no longer in the ground it's technically not a stump).

    @OMG! Ponies!: Woah there, It did in fact remind me of that but I did not want to post it, simply because it would offend many types of people (Jewish, Homosexual, Gypsies, etc).

    I am in fact offended by the picture, not just because I am jewish, but because that picture is just simply disturbing and a tad bit racist. If you can please remove it, that would be great #pebrobench

    For the record, I'm also Jewish. And the grandson of a German Jewish immigrant who came to America in the early 1930s. He also served in WWII and helped liberate several concentration camps.

    I understand you find it offensive. But this may be more you being sensitive and less me being insensitive. #pebrobench
