Sorry, couldn't resist. This one did make me smile ..

"Every Solidarity center had piles and piles of paper .... everyone was
eating paper and a policeman was at the door.  Now all you have to do is
bend a disk."
- an anonymous member of the outlawed Polish trade union, Solidarity,
  commenting on the benefits of using computers in support of their movement

I wonder about the problems of eating those paper-based blu-ray disks that people occasionally talk about. In any case, it's one hell of a lot of roughage..
