That's what I was thinking. Anyone who's done some woodworking and
such has already learned to transfer shapes with just a pencil and
piece of wood.

We got along very well without computers for many years, yet now some
folks can't leave the house without checking the weather, roads, etc.,
when just a few years ago they'd never give it a thought.

How could you forget checking E-mail and social media?

Obviously, you are not with it, and neither am I. Whatever this
"it" is, I think it has too much company. BEG

I'm not suggesting it shouldn't be used, just that it shouldn't rule
how you do things.

I love being able to access electronic datasheets without hunting
through my library of books, chatting with people I don't know, and
using a computer to draw schematics etc.. It is a wonderful resource
and I hope it stays that way; or I hope capitalism doesn't wreck it.
