Miss Information is surprisingly chatty

Miss Information just bored an old guy patron witless with an enthusiastic but pointless and longwinded oration entitled: Microform Readers We Have Owned in the Library. She went into surprisingly endless detail about the old machines vs the new machines, which, although they are chronologically older than the old machines are in fact, more user friendly than the old machines which were higher tech, but more confusing to the ordinary microfilm customer, where they came from, where the old ones are, library policy concerning microform materials, and on and on.

The poor fellow had just asked where the power switch was. That'll teach him to ask questions when Miss Information is high on caffeine.

Wittering ladies high as kites, vast sweeping technological revolutions, oratory demos for the price of a coffee?

And who said libraries were boring?

Damn! Got right out of hand, didn't you? That's hilarious. In future, have a donut with those coffees. :)
