Surely the data content of each “packet” is essentially the same so I’m guilty of becoming really rather boring by “saying” the same thing 100 million times. An even greater waste of bandwidth than reading this! Also I think she might argue that only counting 5 seconds of the “data connection” is not valid as I cannot sustain that data rate. If she works out that in practical terms the data rate is only 37.5MB a week she’ll be looking for a new “modem” – especially when she realises that my “newspaper” has the same stories each week. By comparison she claims greater “effeciency” in that she only repeats herself once a month. Obviously we’re talking of ovulation, verbal repetition frequency (or as we scientists call it “nagging”) has a significantly lower rate of repetition but, arguably, not in comparison to my 100 million spermatazoa).

Finally there’s the problem of which i/o port she is using and, frankly, I prefer it when data gets “digested” rather than merged with her monthly data packet and processed.
