From a reader, duly breathless with victory:

“OK, I think I’ve got the record for the NRO Corner. I just stuffed 110

pages of paper relating to a proposal I worked on, replete with staples, in

my socks (white, half-calf terry cloth) and did my nightly walk of about a

mile. They didn’t fall out, and my only suffering was to have a slightly

tired right foot at the end of the evening. And, I did count the pages

one-by-one. Beat that!”
