via Gizmodo. A man in Sweden recently had his laptop stolen, but was surprised to find a USB stick with all of his data and personal information in the mail a week later. Haha, wow. How kind!!! I guess there is honor amongst thieves.

As the victim, a professor at Sweden’s Umeå University, told the Västerbottens-Kuriren newspaper “this story makes me feel hope for humanity.” Of course, you could argue that had the thief had a touch more humanity in his bones he wouldn’t have stolen the laptop in the first place, but at least he left the professor’s credit cards and money in the bag the laptop was stolen from. The only other thing that was stolen, bizarrely, was his library card.
