Who doesn't "parlay contacts" they make at one job to get their next job? Except blog writers and hamburger-cookers, I mean.

The one advantage of those cuneiform symbols on clay is longevity. Five thousand years from now anything written on paper will be dust, and anything written in digital may be unreadable because nobody supports these formats by then.

But those clay tablets may still be lying around somewhere.

I guess those who have done that shuffling themselves, like oh... you.
