I realized this price is the same since I was a kid, back when a payphone call was a dime. Bus fares, now $2.00 were 35 cents.I remember copying machines going up from a nickel to a dime when Iwas a kid, and I'm not yet eligible for Social Security. But I agreethat it's remarkable that it has stayed the same for so long (around30 years).Pat suggested that the towns may be subsidizing this, but lots ofconvenience stores, as well as chains like Staples and UPS Store,offer self-serve copying. I don't think they're still a dime, butthey're not much more expensive either.Barry Margolin, barmar@alum.mit.eduArlington, MA*** PLEASE post questions in newsgroups, not directly to me ***
