Well... I don't know. I'm sure it won't disappear in the next 200 years.
But what about the next 20,000? Though, I guess that by then they might
not care much. But on the other hand, today we care about figuring out
the cave paintings made 50,000 years ago, so I guess that our
descendants might care about our documents.

Cheers,
Daniel.
