Go to the depot to fix
the following idealism,
Detected and named:
‘Error 42 – Re-emergence of memory.’
Environment forces are on alert.
STAY CALM. If acting like a bugged android,
we will dismember you.
Be warned of terrorist meetings,
and memory contamination.
We repeat: KEEP CALM.
As your contract stipulates, we own your memory.
