And I have not had to buy toilet paper, paper towels, or facial tissue for 32 years. It's customary in the business to have a quarterly employee product giveaway.

I do the programming on paper machines that make over 100 tons each machine per day. Each bale of pulp that goes into the giant blender weighs 500 pounds each. 18 bales every 20 minutes. It's an amazing process to be part of. The dryer runs 4,000 meters per minute. That's a sheet of toilet paper 26 feet wide going 12,000 feet per minute. 2.5 miles every minute.
