been thinking about all the little moments tucked away in my memories that are a world unknowable to those younger than me, so consider this an opportunity to reminisce over old times, but also to ask those about the times you did not live through.

I guess my question for those older than me is: before computers, how did you learn to do something?

Did access to knowledge change your life, was a constraint lifted when you no longer depended on having found the right books or people to learn tips on how to cook a new dish, or how to fix a plumbing problem, or how to plant a garden?

Was life more simple, did you have fewer problems to solve without technology in your life, or did technology make life easier?

    Big Star Radio City And while you’re at it listen to all their albums (there’s only 3…I don’t count the 90s album) #1 Record is superior in a lot of ways and is phenomenal in it’s own right. Third is an artistic expression that is its own animal. Beautiful and brilliant in the most unconventional ways.
