Guide to premature blindness

Step 1: Go to grad school, preferably one without free printing.
Step 2: Print all your reading two sheets to a printed page and double-sided to save money. If you're really poor, try four to a page.
Step 3: Read.

And be sure to do it in a dimly lit room!

That also helps, but is not on my list of complaints yet.

I have told you which Ivy League has free printing, right?

Lose $15 billion on your endowment, the free printing goes away. Try the $20 reading glasses at the drug store, see if they help. Report on your results at Cheapness Studies. dave.s.

There is free printing You should have a free balance of like $20 for the whole year (whopping, I know) at the Science Center computer lab only. Perhaps this has changed, but I doubt it.

Also, bear in mind there are differences in costs across libraries, so if you are printing out 200 page pieces it can be worth it to find the cheap ones.

Alex: The one to which I did not apply?

Dave S: Already have glasses, duh.

Hum III: I have since been informed of a free 500 page allowance in the gov building. How to access this though is still a mystery.

These are indeed mysteries of the grade school faith.
