Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 3395755, member: 27"] Me too. Of course, in my day, there was no giant repository of papers on the Internet. If you needed one, you put paper in a typewriter and typed it yourself. Writing a paper was bad enough but I hated typing it so much more. A laptop or iPad would have been so awesome back then. Sigh. One time I saw an ad for a typist on Marshall St. Ripped off one of those little rectangles with a phone number and gave it a try. The girl who did it was illiterate or incompetent or perhaps both. She was a couple of days late, Introduced a bunch of spelling errors, skipped a page and typed the same paragraph twice a couple of times. I finally got the paper 15 minutes before I had to hand it in and read it as I was walking to class. It was a walk of sadness. Some say technology is bad. I say if technology put that typist out of business, it HAS to be good. [/QUOTE]
