I went into the Department of Motor Vehicles to obtain the title and license plates for my new truck.
After spending five minutes typing all my personal information into a computer, the DMV clerk pulled out a huge book to look up the excise tax for the vehicle. I mentioned that, since she had a networked computer, it would seem more efficient to just enter the information in the computer and have it look up the tax rather than create, print, and distribute such a large book.
She looked at me in that serious, governmental clerk manner and said, "They can't do that. The information changes too quickly."
