A conversation I had today, at the copy machines in the library:
Me [copying a 40-page article]: I'm not sure whether it's worse copying
these things or reading them.
This other guy [looking up from copying some other huge article]:
Huh?
Me [turning around]: I'm not sure whether it's worse having to copy these things
or having to read them.
Him: Oh. Yeah.
Me: Mine has lots of charts, at least.
Him: You don't really have to read those.
Me [finishing copying]: Yeah, you never see anyone highlighting a graph.
