While printing out the nth copy of a document the other day for review and proofing, I pondered the paperless office which was supposed to have been the "way of the future". All of our documents and other communications would be in digital format, and we would never have to print anything again. Hmmm, not necessarily so, I thought as I watched sheet after sheet emerge from the printer - this couldn't really be considered a "paperless" office. But, as luck would have it, just as I thought that (okay, okay, I did say it aloud), the printer stopped ... out of paper ... and I realised, that, indeed, the "paperless office" had come to pass - because I was totally and utterly out of paper. Sometimes, you know, it's just a matter of interpretation!
