Once a child of the internet, always a child.. perhaps an orphan.
I even remember Fortran and Basic. A time when Ascii ruled the
existing platforms. Modem speeds of 2400/bps ruled the net.
I digress...
And so Papa bear said.. "Goodnight chilluns.. Get me some clean
sheets".... (snore)

Well, they didn't really have cameras in those days. I must say just sitting
in that old chair was very trying. The worst part was having to sit for the
sketch.. then going back later so the artist could paint by numbers. After all
that work.. someone sat down and invented an air conditioner to keep the clients
cool while sitting for their portraits, and to keep the make-up from running.
Then of course, the photographers invented searing hot lights. This was great,
for their new cameras. It melted a lot of people before they invented flashbulbs.
So, they invented the copier. It was much faster.
This is just so much fun....
