Were in a world of hurt if kids cant read analog time these days.
They can’t read cursive, or diagram sentences, or use a slide rule, either. The world’s going to hell, I tell ya.

I have just recently received my Dad’s slide rule.
He passed in 1999, Mom in 2011, but only lately has the house been emptied preparatory to sale, and much known to exist but long hidden has come to light.
My BIL says he’ll be able to show me how to use it.
I’m 54.

I had a brilliant English writing composition teacher in high school (1978) and she was adamant about the students learning how to outline essays and paragraphs. I have used those writing tools my whole adult life. I wonder if that is even taught anymore.
