We’ve all had that moment when we realize we’re getting older. It usually stems from the “kids today aren’t like they use to be” conversation.
The other day I was talking to a friend about how kids won’t/don’t know anything about vinyl records, 8 tracks, the telegram, typewriters, etc.
Turns out, I might be wrong about their knowledge of typewriters: http://www.magicmargin.net/p/student-typecasts.html
Kudos to this teacher in Phoenix for exposing his class to the joys of using a typewriter (as I type on a laptop). Trouble is, I’m not sure if I’m charmed or concerned.
