Nice aphorism Joe! You could also have pointed him to the “Smell the Color Nine” CD, which you should find in the contemporary christian section.

I would have said the CDs with data weigh less b/c the information is etched into patterns of holes, and one would assume that the holes weigh less than the medium they are etched into. Assuming the etching removes material and not forces it to the sides. This would be counter to his claim that information weighs something: here information weighs less no information. In the future, when these issues come up, just pause the conversation and email me. Next question: by how much does the temperature of a needle increase due to friction from all the angels dancing on the needle’s head?

I would have just shrugged and said, “Whatever.” You argued with him for about a half hour. No wonder I have trouble coming up with blog posts.
