OH, NO!!

Realize when I was little we had only snail mail and telephones and telegrams for communicating; and radios and films in theaters for news and entertainment.

In 1947, the month I turned 13, I was in the National Spelling Bee and it was the first time it was televised.

Now look at how far we have come!!

I remember how during WWII, EVERY letter to or from a military man or woman was handled by a Real Person, blacking out ANYTHING pertaining to information about location or movement, etc.
That is now impossible to do, e-mail flowing through cyberspace.

We are so blessed to talk daily with so many persons around the world.
