If the user wants to print out a map to the public library to take with him,
does he really want to see on paper everything that was on the web page? All
the nav buttons, banner ads, terms of use, etc? That stuff makes sense in an
*interactive* medium where you can click to link and find out more. On
paper, it's hard to navigate by clicking on widgets, especially while you're
driving. :-)

Any problem that requires walking on water
