Shifty-eyed teenager comes up the Help Desk.
SET: Do you have the Anarchist's Cookbook?
Me: No, but I can probably order it if you'd like.
SET: You'd like, need my name...and stuff for that, right?
Me: Name, address and phone number so we can contact you when it comes in.
SET: No, I'll just go to Amazon. They don't [I]make [I] you give that information there.
I considered giving him the bad news, then decided to let him find out on his own that Amazon does in fact need your information so they can, you know, mail it to you.
Come on, kid, just download it and print it when your parents are asleep. That's what we did back in my day!
