Slashdot is running a discussion about what happens to your average memory cards when you slam, bam, dunk and (as seen in the picture above) nail them to trees! If you've ever come home angry from a bad day at work, don't kick your dog. Kick your memory card! "saikatguha266 writes "BBC is reporting that five types of memory cards were dipped into cola, put through a washing machine, dunked in coffee, trampled by a skateboard, run over by a child's toy car, given to a six-year-old boy to destroy, smashed by a sledgehammer and nailed to a tree. It was still possible to retrieve photos from the xD and Smartmedia cards while the others didn't survive just the last two tests. "
