Wastrel!

The court reporting office I work in often provides ASCII copies of transcripts on diskette. One firm asked for them on CD-ROM. This is a little wasteful; the transcripts in their case have been averaging around 235 KB, and the CD-ROM holds about 623 MB when formatted (so that's less than one twentieth of one percent actually used on the CD).

I thought maybe the attorney had an iMac, and thus no floppy drive. But no, his office recently called and said he was having trouble reading the CD, so could we send another one to him on a floppy disk?

Thanks for wasting our blank CDs, guy.
