What is Photocopying Machine Anyway?

A co-worker sent this around a few days ago, and you may have seen it.  Apparently, a few years ago in Ohio, there was a lawsuit challenging a county recorder's office's decision to remove digital files and charge $2 a page for hard copies.  During the course of that case, the lawyer for the plaintiff deposed an IT administrator in the recorder's office, and the lawyer asked the IT guy about a "photocopying machine."  The resulting discussion is an example of why people hate lawyers, since the witness was obviously coached to be a giant dickhead.  But the best part is that some dude made a dramatization of the deposition into a short film, using the script verbatim.  Here it is.  It's pretty hilarious.
