I remember, during my data processing newbie days, printing off the monthly reports and spending an hour or so just tearing these off. At 3-4 AM nonetheless. :) Don Guyer Systems Engineer - Information Services Prudential, Fox & Roach/Trident Group 431 W.

The only reason I own a flip-top pocket lighter is to hold it up at concerts. (For lighting fireworks, I use one of those wands.) > I'm 36-for-40 > Is anybody here 40-for-40? I think I can honestly lay claim to all but the " Seeing Pages and Pages of Phone S*x Ads in the Back of Free City Weeklies", and that's because I grew up in rural NH and didn't have any free city weeklies available. I might have only done some of those things once, but I've done them. Some I still do all the time. Many of our customers and suppliers still use fax constantly. And some of our test equipment uses floppies. Just last Friday I was at a customer's site, and saw an old box of fan-fold sprocket-fed paper they had in a corner. They used it for scrap paper.
