| Forget the acoustic coupler -- what about having to actually dial the phone numbers? And papers were typed without any automatic spell check feature, except what you could provide. I had a prof in college who was extremely picky about correct spelling, no typos, absolutely perfect footnote form, etc. etc. On a major paper my senior year I cajoled my mother (trained as aprofessional secretary) to type it. I/we got a great grade and the comment that it was the "best looking typed paper he'd ever seen." Go Mom! |
