    I restored a 1930s era dial telephone that I have on my desk. My grandson saw it, and couldn’t figure out how the heck to use it. When I showed him how to use it, it blew his mind to learn that back in the day, that was the only way we had to make calls. Touch tone was a waaaaay down the road. So was cable TV and video games.

    I feel like I can talk to people from about age 45 and up. Younger, it gets difficult. Below 25, it’s a divide.

    Even comics rely on social media, don’t you think?..

    If the old reality is anything like fashion it’ll be new again.

    When I was four years old on 1950, we visited my aunt and uncle in Preble Indiana. (Aunt Lillian was my mother’s younger sister and uncle Frank was a school teacher and principle) Their phone was on the wall and had a crank. It was on an eight party line. Back in the NW suburbs of Chicago we were on a four party line with no dial.

    Back in the old days TVs, radios, etc had tubes with glowing red cathodes. Most homes were heated with coal and Railroads had steam locomotives. I remember riding a train pulled by steam.

    When we were in Canada, we had a mild emergency and the doctor came to the house and took care of it. Our son said, “I thought only Marcus Welby did that!”

    If cable and satellite TV can have a couple hundred pay-per-view channels, they could do subscriptions for individual channels, and we wouldn’t have to pay for the junk we never watch. The technology is there.As for reality, the right-wing media makes its own, and we have all suffered for it. The disparity with real reality makes sure of that.

    Cancelled the satellite TV a few years ago. Best $80 a month I ever saved. Now have an indoor HD antenna.

    Even that “old reality” had been new once.
