This horrible statement by Lantley cannot go unchallenged:
"It happens fast, keep looking forward not backwards.....nothing behind you but: pay phones, VCR's, DVD's, horse and buggy's, tube TV's,land line phones and ICE's!"
My Amish and "Buggy" Mennonite neighbors from 5 years in South Central Pennsylvania would indeed be shocked that the day of the horse is over. Don't forget Y2K, they were all ready for it.
Also a good friend of 30 years, who in the real world designed Pacemakers and pushed them through FDA approval has the strangest hobby I have ever seen. He designs and builds analog signal processing and devices with TUBES. Even more shocking is that more than a few people share this hobby, they buy/sell/trade tubes. He has a 10X10X8 area in his house filled with this stuff. Some of them are worth hundreds of dollars. By the way, got any old tube equipment you want to give away?
This true story is intended to break some of the tough feelings in this thread. Old tech never dies, but then again I drive a 1948 CJ2A.
??? LOL, now the relevance has gone completely out the window...
I sure hope most of y'all are retired, because idk how you could hold down any real job with the attention span of an 8 year old!
