There were two interesting news items in the paper a few years ago. One was about a man who received a bill from the telephone company for $ 999 990—for three months. The other was about a man who received $ 2000 a month-for doing nothing.

    The connection between the two news items is simple: computers—the best inventions of the twentieth century. The telephone bill came from a computer which made a terrifying mistake; that man's bill was only $ 23.36. The other item was not so amusing. A man walked into the unguarded computer room of a large packaged food company and expertly programmed the computer (给计算机编程序) to pay him $ 2 000 a month for raw meat which he “supplied” to the company. Of course he never sent the meat, but he certainly received the money. The computer wrote out a bill, and even “signed” it. It was only a random (随便的) check that uncovered the trick.
