Duff, you reminded me of a story of when I was the "webmaster" (remember
those) for a small university and my new boss was convinced that PDF and
Adobe Acrobat were "old technology" and would be "gone" soon. She insisted
that I stop posting PDF documents that faculty had given to me to put on the
website. I did what I was told but indicated that I thought she was
incorrect in her analysis.

That was 1998. I long ago left that job. She is still there...
