Ah... does anybody else remember the advent of black and white? The age of color seems like yesterday just before this thing called a fax machine which I am told is now practically obsolete.

If anybody out there has a copy of MY FIFTY YEARS AT THE NEW JERSEY BAR by Robert McCarter he will find in the introduction his fascination in 1885 on encountering a male clerk in the show window of Bamberger's department store operating a new fangled contraption called the typewriter. The author said that he wondered if the new invention would somehow change the practice of law.

Now, how can I get one of them picture phones?
