Your Laugh for the Day on Crutchfield

Go to www.Crutchfiled.com and shop for Delorean speakers. Search by vehicle and put in the Delorean information. Someone there has a sense of humor.

I read somewhere that vendors who make their databases available online, intentionally put in bogus stuff. It's not just for fun, there is a serious reason. Sometimes competitors will hack their databases, and use the parts lists for their own, but it's too much info to go through by a human, so the bogus data persists in the copied database, and wham-bam-thank-you-mam, the thief just got outed. If the bogus parts ever get discovered on the original database, like the O'Reilly Flux Capacitor, well that's ok too, because it's kind of fun for the public, and it draws people to the vendor's web site. Also, there are probably countless more bogus entries like that, that have yet to be discovered.

Same principle as paper towns, where map makers will supposedly put in bogus super-small towns. The names and the number of such towns are a corporate secret, and don't really harm the integrity of the map. So if another map maker copies their map (corporate theft of countless hours of meticulous work/research), they will not know if a few small towns actually exist or not because they won't do the research. So the paper towns will get duplicated, and again, the copyright violator can be caught easy enough.

But then, who really knows for sure....
