I listen a lot in the morning to
KCRA. It is a news-talk AM radio station out of Sacramento. This
morning I caught a piece about federal retirement procedure.
It
seems that all federal retirement is processed as hard-copy. I don't
know if this is a legal requirement, an administrative requirement or
just the way they do it. This hard copy paperwork is stored long-term
in a limestone cavern at the bottom of a mine shaft. This arrangement
is left over from the cold war.
Therefore
the number of federal retirements that can be fully processed in any
given period of time is limited by the speed of a 75-year old elevator
in a mine shaft.

Yep. It's true. It was announced by Elon Musk.
