A deep and important question about our universe.
What’s the difference in environmental impact between using a computer to look up directions and print them out on a sheet of paper vs. looking up and following directions on an iPhone? Both have a huge number of hidden costs, though fortunately the Internet half is more or less the same for both.

Just realizing that the thing in the corner of my living room is now a boarding pass dispenser more than anything else.

I don't know the answer to your question, but I do know that I use mine for printing out tax receipts too.

I was going to ask “who are you?” but you conveniently posted most recently with a picture of yourself. :-)

Off to NYC for a week, back for several more weeks off here in SF. Yay!
