POPSVery Long-Term Backup- Rosetta One side of the disk contains a graphic teaser. The design shows headlines in the eight major languages of the world today spiraling inward in ever-decreasing size till it becomes so small you have trouble reading it, yet the text goes on getting smaller. The sentences announce: “Languages of the World: This is an archive of over 1,500 human languages assembled in the year 02008 C.E. Magnify 1,000 times to find over 13,000 pages of language documentation.” This graphic side of the disk is pure titanium. A black oxide coating has been added to the surface. The text is etched into that, revealing the whiter titanium. This bold sign board is needed because the pages of genesis which are etched on the mirror-like opposite side of the disk are nearly invisible.

POPSInside the Meatrix "Wow, you have changed my life with one short cartoon." - Susy. "I saw The Meatrix video recently and it really got me thinking in a completely new direction. I want to be a responsible consumer – not only for my well being but for the well being of all farm animals." Jennifer, Buenos Aires, "I worked in a factory pig farm for six months and seen the cruelty and the same sick pigs I seen in the movie. I have a few free range pigs and they are treated 100% better then those poor animals in the barns. I seen the antibiotics that were needed to keep them "healthy." I tell people that if you ever worked in one of these barns you would never buy pork in the store. Keep up the good work!" - Gloria. "Just wanted to say congrats. That was short, insightful, used an intelligent analogy and made me feel just guilty enough to want to do something without getting turned off from the message. Good show..." - Jason, Toronto, Canada.
