Jonathan E. : Misplace some data?
Librarian : The whole of the 13th century.

Librarian : We are confused again here today. This is embarrassing. It's embarrassing to misplace things.
Jonathan E. : Misplaced some data?
Librarian : Hmmm.
[looks at a computer punch card]
Librarian : The whole of the 13th century. Misplaced the computers, several conventional computers. We can't find them. We're always moving things around, getting organized, my assistants and I. This - this is Zero's fault - Zero, he's the world's file cabinet. Pity, poor old 13th century.
[pause]
Librarian : Well, come along now, you want to get started, don't you?
Jonathan E. : Yes, sir.
Librarian : [takes Jonathan's coat and hat and puts them aside before they go to the room with Zero in it] This way! Now, we've lost those computers with all of the 13th century in them. Not much in the century, just Dante and a few corrupt Popes, but it's so distracting and annoying!

Jonathan E. : Could you tell me something about the Corporate Wars?
Librarian : Wars, wars! Oh, yes, of course, we have them all here. Punic War. Prussian War. Pelopanesian War. Crimean War. Wars of the Roses. Wonderful, perhaps, to call them in sequence. But, eh, Corporate Wars?
