I've noticed that many of my HD disks cannot be successfully
reformatted. So instead of erasing them with the menu command, i
select all & then drag to the trash (or more likely, erase with
DiskTop, which simply clears the directory...) I never reformat a
floppy (either kind) any more.

From the corrections column in a July Fresno, CA _Bee_:
"An item in Thursday's [issue] about the Massachusetts budget crisis
made reference to new taxes that will help put Massachusetts 'back in
the African-American.' The item should have said 'back in the black.'"
