He starts defending because eight ends up being the best number in different matters of life, then he reaches the middle is massage, he goes through the digital age and comes to the technique of cutting, copying and pasting. It also crosses the time in cyberspace that occupy 2 bits, also comments on the magic 8 ball to conclude the bits in the error check, to complement this number, which is digital communication.
