I have about 1000 sheets of fanfold carbon in my office. When a trainee programmer in the 80s I tested a program that printed to 3-part line-printer. Foolishly (I lived and learnt) the first run was with the correct stationery. It had an endless loop. The operator phoned me up when the first box of stationery was all used up (only printed one line per page) checking if I really needed it, and how many boxes it would take. He made me come down to the machine room and collect it. Seemed an embarrassing waste to put it in the skip, so I took it home as "I'd need carbon paper sometime". D'Oh! | :doh:
