You are possably correct, however.

Just imagen all the ones that have tryed out the idea's written about ext2 
filesystems on a cdrom.....
What do you think they have thought so far.?

Its feasable what the person suggest's, but it has, AFAIsee no use at all.

I remember last year when someone sent a small one line script to the list 
asking what was wrong with it and if folks would test/try it, well i am sure 
many did, but i am also sure that many lost there systems as well as it would 
have completely wiped out there disk, (if run as root), if it was run as a 
user then that user lost all data/files in his home directory, i take that 
sort of thing very seriously indeed when sent to a list of people who have 
trust in us who try to answer questions sensibly and to the best of our 
knowlage.

Joking and palying around should be done in the playground, not in the 
classroom.

One reason why i bite at the bate...
If you belive i am a troll for doing so let me know.
