Elizabeth Pittenger, lycéenne américaine de 22 ans, doit la vie à sa TI-83+.
Comme elle résistait à un vol à l'arrachée un jeudi soir, son agresseur n'hésite pas à faire usage de son arme. Heureusement, sur la trajectoire de la balle se trouve le sac à main d'Elizabeth, et à l'intérieur une bonne vieille TI-83+ qui arrête le projectile, se sacrifiant pour servir une toute dernière fois sa propriétaire.
Les TI-83+ sont en effet faites en polycarbonate, un matériau avec lequel on fait des lunettes pare-balles pour la chasse. En théorie, elles arrêtent donc les chevrotines ou balles de carabine. La théorie s'est heureusement révélée vraie en pratique cette fois-ci.
