And I hope the copy in your workshop is covered with greasey
fingerprints, indicating lots of practical use. That's what I wrote all
that stuff for.
What blows my mind is that I did it all with a typewriter and gallons of
white-out. Remember those? No cut and paste, no delete key, lots of
botched pages balled up and thrown on the floor. If personal computers
had existed at the time, I might have stuck it out longer. Oh well, that
was a long time ago, but I'm glad to hear that T-Type folks out there
are still finding it useful.

If cars had evolved as fast as computers have, by now they'd cost a
quarter, run for a year on a half-gallon of gas, and explode once a day.
