I had an idea: how about convincing library and school architects to design
media centers with trap doors under the reference desk?  The trap doors
could lead to smoke-free incinerators.  It's a labor-saving device--you
could nudge books into the trap door with your toes while doing other work!
And it's a P.R. tool--parents and teachers wouldn't see you destroying
stained, dogeared books with titles like "Inside East Berlin" or "The Eight
Planets!"  If the incinerator were designed properly, it could also dispose
of old cd-roms (though these make great coasters if you tape over the
holes), 5.25" floppy disks, etc.
