When on my computer monitor a message dawned that there is not sufficient space on the disk, an idea, which seemed brilliant in my opinion, lighted on me. In all of my documents I have replaced the characters with the smallest ones, thus to save space. Nothing happened, and I had no other thing to do but call my boss and explain my problem. He burst into laughter, and all of it is still unclear to me!"
