If Only It Was REALLY This Easy!

My mom sent this along:

1. Open a new file in your computer.
2. Name it 'Barack Obama'.
3. Send it to the Recycle Bin.
4. Empty the Recycle Bin.
5. Your PC will ask you: 'Do you really want to get rid of 'Barack Obama?'
6. Firmly Click 'Yes.'
7. Feel better?

GOOD! - Tomorrow we'll do Nancy Pelosi…

On my Mac, it's even better: it doesn't ask, it just does it.

But I got to thinking: on a PC, you're sending the politician to the “recycle bin”. Is that really what we want? I think not – even if only for a moment – so here's a slightly modified version of the above:

1. Create a new file in your computer and name it "Barack Obama" (because surely you don't already have one!).
2. While holding the Shift key down, right-click on that file.
3. Your PC will ask you: "Do you want to permanently delete Barack Obama?".
4. Firmly click "Yes"!
5. Feel better?

GOOD! - Tomorrow we'll do Nancy Pelosi…
