I have a printer that executes in O(1/N) time, where N is the number
of marbles the sysadmin (me!) has lost. The less sanity I have, the
more printouts it produces. And the less printouts it produces, the
more marbles I lose trying to figure out WHY? WHY? WHY?!?

Okay, I'm done ranting about Windows and 1990s accounting packages and
modern PostScript printers.
